Is falling in love a patriarchal trap?
Description
As little girls, many of us fantasize about falling in love and getting married. But boys don't do the same. Men don't romanticize falling in love, getting married, and being husbands in the way women do. It's not their life's goal to fall in love. They don't see marriage as an accomplishment. In this episode, we'll get into the truth behind "love."
I'll discuss what's really happening to our brains and hormones when we're "falling in love" (hint: it's a chemical reaction to push us to reproduce). Then we'll get into the social elements of falling in love, including the creation of marriage, and how love was weaponized as a tool to control women from the very start.
Btw here's the book The Female Brain by Dr. Louann Brizendine
