Problem #7: Why are women so hyper-sexualized??? Feat Vanessa


Listen Later

Women have been hyper-sexualized as early as the 1400s and Black women have been overly sexualized dating backwards to slavery. Why is this? Why are women seen as properties and not individuals? Why are Black women and other minorities seen as less "womanly" and more objectified than other races. Why do harassed, assaulted and raped women find it difficult to come forward and report these cases when hyper-sexualized in such a traumatic way? Join us this episode as we get deep into the facts and bring you up to date with the current DMV-rape Twitter page scandal Feat. Vanessa [Founder of Wribrand].
