August 08, 2021 NEW FLASH women are more than just sex objects; male gaze Vs female gaze
Hello everyone! After a long break we are so glad to be back! Both El and I have missed the podcast so much, but we are back on track with some sweet, sweet feminist rants for you.
In this weeks episode we break down the male gaze and how it affects us all. From female sexualisation in movies to how Edward Cullen is the personification of the male gaze. We suggest ways of battling Mr Cullen and consider some pretty interesting questions surrounding femininity and androgyny.
Stay tuned and we really hope you enjoy!
Love, El and Bella

February 20, 2021 Internalised misogyny and pick me girls: we’re all judgemental bitches
In this weeks episode we look at the subconscious effects of internalised misogyny and how we all have been raised in a society that has taught us, from birth, to hate every aspect of ourselves. We discuss how our only alternative is to buy into the advertisements, plastic surgery and beauty products which capitalism has promised will make us worthy, and we explore the truth behind our judgment, the competitive nature between women and how all of these things create a woman hating culture. Join us as we look into ways of moving beyond our internalised misogyny to create room for all women to be successful.
