Description

In this episode of A lifetime of talk, I talk about the persistent trope in the media that is the “not like other girls” trope. I discuss the role that vilifying hyper-feminine characters has played in making the “not like other girls” trope existent, and how as a society these tropes can reflect themselves into the way we conceptualize the people, mostly women around us. This episode takes a dive into arguably the most popular female protagonist and antagonist roles that are seen in TV.
