Ellen Moore, host of The Slut Show with Ellen Moore, is back on the podcast! She opens up about a recent breakup that resulted in a nine page letter detailing how toxic masculinity had given her partner a misconception of what a relationship should be. The women go into how misogyny has created a culture around dating that allows for men to have their privilege leak over into our romantic lives. They talk about the emotional labor women take on within relationships, how toxic masculinity contributes to gender norms in relationships, and urge listeners to remember that everyone should feel cared for and seen during a romantic partnership.Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram and https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content!

If you haven’t heard, Natalie is going to the Eras Tour. That means she has been doing a deep dive on her favorite songs from Taylor Swift. Which means that she has also been reflecting on how misogyny plays into the songs she has written and how widespread everyday misogyny is reflected throughout Taylor’s career. Elizabeth Kyle is the perfect Swiftie to help guide Natalie through this conversation. The two women discuss the social dynamics that goes into being a Swiftie, the focus on the men she has had relationships with, and how she has been treated as a professional in the music industry. Between the two of them, they go straight from a Lover to their Midnights Era, and talk about how being aware of how internalized misogyny and widespread cultural misogyny affects people on a larger scale. Topics that are confronted are the way we view success among women creators, to the way we talk about women who have had bad relationships, and how we talk about other women’s bodies and our own bodies. And that’s some real Vigilante Shit.Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram and https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content!

Amanda Kippert, co-host of the podcast Toxic and editor-in-chief of the non-profit Domesticshelters.org, is joining Natalie today to talk about her work with domestic violence reporting and her advocacy efforts for the survivors of domestic violence. Discussion will center around what policies fail people living with domestic violence, how our culture supports abusers and not the abused, and why misogyny is so prevalent that when survivors report their abuse, they often go unheard or not believed. It is an episode that offers people an insight into the reality of domestic abuse within our society, how we can advocate for those living with domestic violence, and also begins building solutions with the resources available to victims and survivors.Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram and https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content!

Natalie is joined by divorce recovery coach, Leah Marie Mazur, to talk about how we have been conditioned to feel about divorce. Throughout the discussion on their own experiences with divorce, topics such as shame, settling, and learning about yourself will be covered.

Divorce will be an end to a contractual relationship, but it doesn’t have to be the end of your joy or happiness. We hope this episode gives you some more perspective on how important it is to know and love yourself instead of tiptoeing around societal expectations and ignoring what you want from your life.Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram and https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content!

One day Natalie got a fateful text from former guest Darcie Darko. It asked “do you want to do a follow up episode on how the misogyny I experienced got worse?” This episode will take Team Tolerator back into the world of women in wrestling. Darcie will dive into how training at her wrestling school continuously got more uncomfortable. From sticking up for predators to being iced out of the ring, Darcie has tolerated a lot of poor behavior from the men who were in control of her ability to partake in her hobby and passion. We will talk about wrestling, media surrounding both women and men, and what it takes to be participating in a sport that is dominated by men. There will even be a story or two about how the scarcity mindset women live under also affects how they treat one another in these types of communities.
