So the story goes: Boy and girl meet. Boy and girl date. Boy and girl become official. Boy and girl marry. Boy and girl move into a home together, and everyone lives happily ever after right?

As of lately, more and more couples are deciding to tackle the roommate test before saying their I dos. And while moving boxes and making a copy of one’s key has become a normalised milestone in one’s relationship, it still has people questioning — does living together before marriage ruin relationships? In this episode, the HUSH girls will discuss all things cohabiting — everything you need to know going into it and whether or not, living with your partner is the right thing to do for you.

The societal expectations for a woman are hard to achieve. It’s like attempting to reach an equilibrium that ceases to exist. Remember! You can be angry, but you not too angry. You can be funny, but not overly so. You can be intelligent, but not a smartmouth (it’s not ladylike!) And most importantly, you can be emotional, but never too sensitive. As women, we are constantly policed to believe that being too little or too much of something is the be-all end-all of our identities. When that shouldn’t be the case. In this episode, the HUSH girls break down these harmful stereotypes and challenge the status quo, while embracing the quirks on what it truly is like to be a woman in this day and age —female rage and all.

Have you ever heard the phrase ‘women are hard to read?’ This leaves us to wonder…really meh? Because as members of the superior gender, there could be nothing simpler. A woman who responds with ‘I’m fine’ after being asked what’s wrong —really isn’t fine. And when she tells you ‘nothing’ for the second time, you can bet that this silent treatment she’s giving you isn’t over nothing. Finally when she tells you to ‘just leave it’ —please don’t. Now if you’re a man reading this, we don’t expect you to have it all down from the get-go. Your struggle to decode us, our texts, our conversations, our behaviour, our social cues will not be in vain. But take it from us when we say, you’ll need a pen and notepad for this one, because you’re in for a full session of women speak 101.
