About this listen

When does "i'm just a baby girl" and being your authentic feminine self cross the line into infantilisation? On this episode, we delve into;

1. Can whimsy be an act of rebeliion to "strong woman" expectations or does it reinforce ideas of women as childlike and independent?

2. What actually is infantilization and why are some women so quick to label feminine as weakness?

3. When we attack women who lean into their softness what are we really centering? Is it her experience or the aesthetics?

4. Is princess treatment repackaged dependence or reclaiming femininity?

5. When and how can we draw the line between critique and internalized misogyny?
