Toxic masculinity has had it's moment in the intense UV-ray beaming sun. We'd like to talk about a lesser discussed topic: toxic femininity. Some people argue strongly that it's not actually a thing, & that conversation gets intense real quick. In this episode, we sit down to at least entertain this real concept & discuss how it can impact our identities no matter what gender we align with. Minji sits down with her friend Jennii Vo Le to walk through the masculine & feminine energies, & how we all have both within us no matter what our identification. This is a deep dive on the narrow & repressive description of womanhood or feminine traits, plus the problematic consequences of it all - confusion, anger, & acceptance of rampant violence & oppression. Get your tea, cold compress & inhaler ready, everyone.
