Making It Awkward

The Womanosphere, Food Politics and the Next Body Ideal


Listen Later

Jessica is joined by Lindsay Lee Wallace for the second of two episodes about the womanosphere. The two talk about the performance of the womanosphere, and more of the media side of things including skinnytok and Evie magazine. Evie magazine is the conservative magazine for cis women that encourages us to seek truth and find beauty. Jessica gets the honor of introducing the new body ideal to Lindsay and hears her response. 

Lindsay and Jessica start by talking about the politics of food and the connections to UPF hysteria.
