Ep. 3: Twins Talk: Lady Gaga & Feminist Celebrities
Manage episode 413052200 series 3569127
Identical twins Amy and Julie talk with Jacob about how pop stars' choices — such as Lady Gaga and Marina Diamandis — reflect the dominant feminist messaging that tells us to put careerist independence first, which can hurt when trying to form a family. We also discuss the perils of Peter Pan syndrome, Americans' "virtue" of independence above all else, the intersection of feminism and hyper-capitalism, and the aging of Western societies.
