I'm With Her - White Feminism, Designer Vaginas, flipside rant and Iz is a big old pervert
Description
This week Cal and I discuss the downfalls of "white feminism" and how this is letting women down. We discuss how we can participate in feminism in an intersectional way and keep driving the movement forward so no one is getting left behind.
Plus, did you know that labiaplasty is fastest rising cosmetic surgery worldwide? Many people with vaginas are getting them nipped and tucked and we what to know WHY? In a poll of more than 3,600 readers, the online women’s magazine Refinery29 found that almost half (48%) had concerns about the appearance of their vulva. Of those, 64% were worried about the size and 60% about the shape of their vulva, with almost one-third (30%) worried about the colour of their genitals.
And I think it comes down to thinking that our vulva isn't "normal" well, before you make that assumption, have a look at these vulva positive influencers who can educate you on what "normal" actually looks like...
Check out Ying Lee (@sativaplath69), who posts about their “phat coochie” and got an incredible 6.4m views for their video on “gatekeeping phat coochie culture” and you may also want to have a look at gynaecologists Jennifer Lincoln (@drjenniferlincoln) and Jen Gunter (@drjengunter) - the author of The Vagina Bible – who make videos explain the vast spectrum of what is normal.
Cal let's rip another glorious rant and this one will hit you hard and we end with a confession from Izzy who is a self-described pervert...uh oh...lot's to discuss!

The book Cal refer to is Against White Feminism by Rafia Zakaria. And if you loved that then have a listen to Koa Beck chatting about the racism imbedded in white feminism.
