Episode 500!!! Ep. 500

There is a lot of confusion around the word patriarchy. It's often misued and misunderstood. It's not a bad word, it's a system in place that benefits men at the expense of women and it's been happening for centuries. This is a look at that.

Women are told they shouldn't put yourself in precarious situations for their own safety. But that means we really don't have freedom if we can't walk at night, wear what we want and have to monitor our behavior at all times.

There is no balance. That line that we are encouraged to walk between sexy and slutty, high maintanced and low maintanced, be a good mother or selfish doesn't exist. There is no line!

Women are constantly coerced into having intimate relations and it's just okay.

Have you ever been told you are being hysterical, too emotional, not rationale, etc. There are many different ways it is used.

Some of the ways I have changed my mind over the last few years. And why I fight for so hard for my beliefs now.

Why do men feel the need to humiliate the woman they just married? Help me understand.

Is your life in a tolerable level of unhappiness? Men just expect us to stay in that place. Maybe it's subconscious but a lot of men say after a divorce that he didn't think it was that bad despite being told by her numerous times that things needed to change.

Women overreact and can never say no to a man.

Mental Labor and the mental load is wearing women out. It's too much to expect from one person and we need to normalize getting help.
