You often hear that older people must strengthen or exercise their pelvic floor, but we learn that pelvic floor health is very important to a functioning bladder and sex life. It’s never too early to work on your pelvic floor. Maybe those Kegels you've been doing since you were a teen contributed to back pain or incontinence. We learn proper Kegel techniques and ways to find out whether you should be loosening or strengthening your pelvic floor.

Gossip has a negative connotation and is typically associated with women being "caty" or "bitchy" to one another, but it can be used for the exchange of social information and help cement friendships. We try to rebrand the term Gossip and focus on the positives and the power it has in self-preservation and bonding between women.

Roe V. Wade is at risk of being overturned once again, but now there is a conservative majority in the supreme court. We talk about the case that could dramatically change things for the worse Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Organization. Abortion access is critical for the health and well being of people with uteruses we need to make sure we maintain our rights and bodily autonomy.

The U.S. Birth Rate has been steadily declining since 2008. It was predicted that the Pandemic would produce a "Baby Boom" because of everyone staying home (and presumably fucking), but the population decline continued. This trend is happening in most wealthy countries as well. Women are choosing to have children at a later age and sometimes not at all. Is the idea of the modern woman changing? Is this decline in population harmful for the future? We discuss the economic and societal impacts.

Breast Implants are among the most popular cosmetic surgery in the US, but are they actually more dangerous than doctors let on? Breast implants can in some cases lead to large cell lymphoma, an aggressive form of cancer.

We also discuss the phenomenon of BII Breast Implant Illness . BII is not officially recognized by the "medical community" but countless people report a series of symptoms related to autoimmune disorders that usually go away when they have their implants removed. Once again we learn that we need to advocate for our own health and listen to our bodies. There is a large internet community of people who have had their implants removed. They call themselves Explants, and these are their stories...

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA)Trusted Source report that people who link their health concerns with BII often experience a resolution of their symptoms if they have a surgeon remove their implants. The person usually does not replace the implant.

Being “Not Like Other Girls” may seem like a harmless quirk but its stems from patriarchal ideas and pits women against each other. When we characterize ourselves at the expense of other women we harm ourselves and our relationship with the women in our lives. Competition among women is commonly portrayed in media and further isolates us from creating true and meaningful female friendships.

We also dive into the “Manic Pixie Dream Girl” trope and how it perpetuates the idea that women’s purpose is to help a boy fully actualize into a man.

We ponder the tradition of women taking their husband's last name in marriage. This practice stems from a patriarchal view of women as property. Women are no longer beholden to their spouses under the law so why are many future brides still practicing this custom? We also discuss alternatives and how name changes are deeply rooted in the western fantasy of romance.
