Description

Netflix shows Indian Matchmaking and Terrace House perpetuate misogyny, casteism, colorism and fatphobia — but we’d rather enjoy a good dating show and not think about the darker sides of Asian culture. (Our culture.) For our season finale, we invite Neha back to the show to decode caste, love jihad, and the ways in which Sima Auntie and the show’s producers perpetuate a high caste, high class, and light-skinned narrative. Jen also unpacks misogyny in Japan and the toxic role the panel plays in "Terrace House." How do these shows affect or own dating biases, and how do we internalize its toxic messages? // Follow us @authethnicpodcast on Instagram for more content!
