Generation: Discourse

The second instalment of a 3 part series on female sexuality, discussed by hosts Vanessa, Sofia and Stella. Featuring: feminist integrity vs progress, Shannon Faulkner, and high school hazing.

We’re back! We’d like to thank everyone for your patience and understanding throughout what became a massive hiatus. For the first episode to get the ball rolling, hosts Sofia, Vanessa and Stella discuss female sexuality. What does it mean to ‘own one’s sexiness’? Can the state of being sexually attractive ever be owned, or is it defined by perception by the other? Featuring: gratuitous referencing of Simone de Beauvoir, heterosexual male fear, and the villainy of ambition.

This is the final instalment of a five part series in which hosts Vanessa and Stella are joined by guests Heeseo Kim, Max Crean and Andrew Wu to discuss the traditional roles of women. In this episode, the discussion centres more around how we study ourselves, modern versus historical psychology, the complexities of the home environment, individualism and collectivism.

This is the fourth instalment of a five part series in which hosts Vanessa and Stella are joined by guests Heeseo Kim, Max Crean and Andrew Wu to discuss the traditional roles of women. In this episode, the discussion evolves to centre around women’s traditional value in relation to men, marriage, the biological clock and where society might evolve to prove limiting factors moot.

This is the third instalment of a five part series in which hosts Vanessa and Stella are joined by guests Heeseo Kim, Max Crean and Andrew Wu to discuss the traditional roles of women. In this episode, the discussion evolves to centre around the movement towards equality and how long society will take to follow, school dynamics translating into work environments, and what it means to be “othered”. 

In a new 5-part series, hosts Vanessa and Stella are joined by guests Heeseo Kim, Max Crean and Andrew Wu to discuss the traditional roles of women. We begin by examining various studies which investigate trends in the behaviour of men and women in different societies, and what that might say about the inherent or situational differences between the sexes. 

In the final instalment of the philanthropy series, hosts Vanessa and Stella delve deeper into discussing who it is we should be helping with guests Russell O'Brien, Kunli Zhang and Ranudi Lelwala.

In part 2 of the philanthropy series, hosts Vanessa and Stella explore how best those with wealth can give to others with guests Russell O'Brien, Kunli Zhang and Ranudi Lelwala.

Together with our guests Russell O’Brien, Kunli Zhang and Ranudi Lelwala, hosts Vanessa and Stella consider the notion of the obligation to philanthropy, the responsibilities of those with more than others, and how the notions of equity and freedom interact.
