Thanks to Mattel, all problems of feminism have been solved! We know, we know, EVERYONE is talking about Barbie. But thanks to Barbieland, ~patriarchy~ is all over your feed, and that's one of our favorite topics to dissect. **FULL OF SPOILERS

Last time on Sad GAP we talked about the boss bitches who held it down on the home front during WW2. This week we talk about the feminist black hole that followed the end of the war! Women were ousted from their jobs and sent home to pro-create and serve their husbands. Housewives were popping pills to get by and the rising second wave feminism failed in terms of intersectionality. All around bad news, but an important precursor to the sexual revolution and improving rights of the '60s/'70s. This episode features new INTRO MUSIC from Jonni Brooks!!

Today we learn about the experiences of the ~brave American women~ who joined the military & went into manufacturing work during the second world war. They outpaced their male counterparts as engineers and factory workers, died on the battlefield tending to wounded soldiers, and generally kicked ass all around. We Can Do It! Or something.

There are numerous examples of female-led societies in past, present, and in the animal kingdom. Are you shocked to learn that they’re LESS violent and MORE egalitarian? Neither were we. This is a fun one because matriarchies are cool af, but a sad one because we can’t have nice things.

Do you wish your jeans had pockets? We do too. Despite the fact that women are the primary consumers of the fashion industry, only 14% of leadership positions are held by women. And it shows! Topics include historic trends, vanity sizing, labor workers in fashion, and why your damn pants have those tiny stupid pockets.

THERE IS NO PHYSICAL ASPECT OF VIRGINITY. I'm gonna say it again. THERE IS NO PHYSICAL ASPECT OF VIRGINITY. Your hymen -- if you even have one, cuz it's normal to be born without it -- does not "break" or "pop". Having sex with a man does not change who you are in some fundamental way. And virginity can't be reduced to penis-in-vagina sex, because some people never even have or want that.

A conversation about bisexuality, queerness, and sexual fluidity in women. This one was *not* recorded in a closet (hint, hint).

In a continuation of last week's episode, the Sad Girls talk about sexism in our historical approach to mental health. In other words, stop that womb from scuttling around the body causing all SORTS of trouble!
