Olivia Rodrigo is the subject of the internet's ire for *checks notes* allegations of pedobaiting. The star's music video and stage outfits - consisting of babydoll dresses, bloomers and ruffles - are causing controversy as the 'drop dead' singer is accused of simultaneously sexualising and infantilising herself and indoctrinating her young audience into pandering to the male gaze. In this week's episode, hosts Ione and Gina question if the outfits are problematic in and of themselves and ask what happens when women are blamed for society's sexism. <a href="https://www.polyesterzine.com/join-the-dollhouse" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Support our work and become a Polyester Podcast member <3</a> <a href="https://bio.to/polyesterbookofbadtaste?utm_campaign=button_list_PreOrderThePolyesterBookofBadTaste&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=later-linkinbio" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Order The Polyester Book Of Bad Taste here!</a> <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Poor-Little-Sick-Girls-unacceptable/dp/0349702411/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Order Ione's book, Poor Little Sick Girls, here!</a> <a href="https://lnk.to/GreedyGuts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Order Gina's book, Greedy Guts, here!</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
