"Girls go out and have your fun, then they hunt and slay the ones who actually do it." What does it mean to view Taylor Swift's music through a feminist lens? On this week's show and tell episode, we look at three songs from the lens of Feminist Theory—"Mean," "Nothing New," and "Mirrorball"—to examine how they critique patriarchal expectations, the limitations placed on women, and the struggle for self-definition. From the societal obsession with youth and likability to the emotional labor of constantly adjusting to fit in, this discussion unpacks the deeper layers of feminist literary criticism embedded in Swift's songwriting.

In The Wedding Planner, Steve and Mary never technically cross a physical line—but does that mean nothing shady is going on? If you're emotionally invested in someone outside your relationship, is that cheating? This week, DB brings in feminist relationship theory from bell hooks, Esther Perel, and Adrienne Rich to unpack emotional infidelity—what it is, why it happens, and how relationship norms shape who gets away with it. Plus: why women are expected to tolerate emotional neglect, how to set boundaries without controlling your partner, and why emotional closeness doesn't have to be a threat to commitment.

Nos últimos anos, a interseccionalidade se popularizou. A palavra aparece no título de vários livros, em documentos oficiais de governos e até em artigos de opinião analisando o Big Brother, publicados em revistas de grande circulação, mas afinal o que é a interseccionalidade? Qual a origem dessa ideia? E como aplicá-la? Esse episódio, que inaugura nossa linha de breves introduções incendiadas, buscará responder essas questões. O objetivo não é esgotar o assunto, mas oferecer uma introdução rápida, porém de qualidade, além de indicar uma trilha de leitura. Para aprofundar o estudo: AKOTIRENE, Carla. Interseccionalidade.

In How We Write Now: Living with Black Feminist Theory (Duke UP, 2024), Jennifer C. Nash examines how Black feminists use beautiful writing to allow writers and readers to stay close to the field's central object and preoccupation: loss. She demonstrates how contemporary Black feminist writers and theorists such as Jesmyn Ward, Elizabeth Alexander, Christina Sharpe, and Natasha Trethewey mobilize their prose to ask readers to feel, undo, and reassemble themselves. These intimate invitations are more than a set of tools for decoding the social world; Black feminist prose becomes a mode of living and feeling, dreaming and being, and a distinctly affective project that treats loss as not only paradigmatic of Black life but also an aesthetic question. Through her own beautiful writing, Nash shows how Black feminism offers itself as a companion to readers to chart their own lives with and in loss, from devastating personal losses to organizing around the movement for Black lives. Charting her own losses, Nash reminds us that even as Black feminist writers get as close to loss as possible, it remains a slippery object that troubles memory and eludes capture.

These intimate invitations are more than a set of tools for decoding the social world; Black feminist prose becomes a mode of living and feeling, dreaming and being, and a distinctly affective project that treats loss as not only paradigmatic of Black life but also an aesthetic question. Through her own beautiful writing, Nash shows how Black feminism offers itself as a companion to readers to chart their own lives with and in loss, from devastating personal losses to organizing around the movement for Black lives. Charting her own losses, Nash reminds us that even as Black feminist writers get as close to loss as possible, it remains a slippery object that troubles memory and eludes capture.

"I would say what we can celebrate is the incredible mobilization of the young people. They went everywhere, they knocked on the door, they mobilized. This was an incredible, incredible mobilization.

What do the Gremlins, Feminist Theory, and Stefani's 3rd grade Odyssey of the Mind team have in common? They all got us thinking about adaptive technologies and how we can promote pleasure and intimacy across the lifespan. In this week's free-ranging conversation, Stef and Wolf talk about aging, living and loving with disabilities, and Stef's favorite buzzy (and not so buzzy) toys for all bodies. Show Notes
A single moment can last forever in our memory, yet research has shown us that perhaps our memories are less than accurate. Which begs the question - if the average person has approximately 60,000 thoughts per day, and 75% of these thoughts are negative, and 95% are repetitive - what would happen if we consciously changed or ‘reprogrammed' our traumatic memories? It's a traditional Lakota belief (these are the Sioux people of North American Indian tribes of the Midwest) that our healing reaches both forward and backward for seven generations. If you're one of the billions of human that feel no matter the efforts you have gone through to shake off your trauma, it still feels like a traumatised child is living inside of you - then you'e going to love this interview with Prof. Felicity Grace. Enter Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP), created in 1961 by Albert Pesso and Diane Boyden-Pesso - it's one of the most advanced therapeutic system available to us for emotional re-education or reprogramming. It's been repeatedly said - If you want to really learn how to work on family of origin issues, and how to use body information in your therapy, go straight to PBSP. My Guest Dr Felicity Grace works as a Mental Health Social Worker in private practice, as well as facilitating the Australian training in PBSP Psychomotor. Leading her to this work as a popular therapist and teacher were undergraduate studies in law, economics and government, a PhD in politics and financial security for women, as well as a Bachelor of Social Work, and studies in Feminist Theory, Gender Studies and Queer Theory. Dr Felicity has trained in many different forms of therapy and counselling including Holistic, Art, Mind-Body psychotherapies, couples, Family Constellations, and Interpersonal Therapy. At the time of recording, Felicity is about to become Australia'a first fully qualified practitioner of Pesso-Boyden System of Psychomotor (PBSP) artofhappiness.com.au

Eleven years ago, Sheryl Sandberg's “Lean In” hit the shelves and frankly, blew up the world. Her feminist manifesto encouraged women to stop holding themselves back from working to reach positions of power and instead “lean on” other women's experiences to help them. Now, many women are pushing back on the “lean in” approach that placed so much responsibility on individual women rather than the societal and economic structures around them. They're also questioning if they really want to have it all in the first place. In her new book: “Fair Shake: Women And The Fight To Build A Just Economy,” Naomi Cahn and her coauthors explore why our “winner takes all” economy is the root cause of women's continued economic inequality rather than our individual actions. She also talks solutions, starting with making deeper connections in our communities and reaching out to them for support when we need it. Chapters: 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:03:12 - Interview with Naomi Khan 00:07:51 - Winner Take All Economy 00:10:18 - Intersection of Feminist Theory and Workplace Progress 00:14:43 - The Triple Bind Women Face in the Workplace 00:17:47 - Strategies for Women to Navigate Career Challenges 00:28:08 - Solutions to Combat the Winner-Take-All Economy 00:33:17 - Mailbag Segment Begins Takeaways: The gender wage gap remains a persistent issue, with women earning an average of 82% of what men earn. The winner-take-all economy, characterized by income inequality and a focus on individual financial success, holds women back in the workplace. Feminist theory is essential in addressing gender equity and dismantling the structures that perpetuate inequality. Systemic changes, such as increasing transparency, strengthening laws, and investing in individuals and communities, are necessary to build a just economy. More money news when you need it!

This week, we delve into how the influential theorist Michel Foucault challenged and changed our conceptions of power. We also begin to plumb how a feminist understanding of power can help inform our efforts to perpetuate social change. Our guest scholar for this conversation is Dr. Amy Allen, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Penn State University, who helps us deepen our understanding of the inescapability and essential neutrality of power. --- Dr. Amy Allen is the Associate Dean for Faculty Affairs and Advancement and Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Penn State University. Her work engages with 20th-century Continental Philosophy, Critical Theory, Feminist Theory, and Social and Political Theory. She completed her PhD in philosophy at Northwestern University. Before joining Penn State, she taught philosophy at Grinnell College, Dartmouth College, and the University of Edinburgh. She has served in a number of prominent positions such as sitting on the executive committee of the eastern division of the American Philosophical Association. She has been an executive co-director of the Society for Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy, a co-editor-in-chief of Constellations: An International Journal of Critical and Democratic Theory, and editor of the series New Directions in Critical Theory published by Columbia University Press. --- While her full catalog of articles and books is far too long to list here, the publications below provide a useful introduction to his scholarship addressing the topic of power: Allen, A. (2018). The power of feminist theory. Routledge. Allen, A. (2007). The politics of our selves: Power, autonomy, and gender in contemporary critical theory. Columbia University Press. Allen, A. (1998). Rethinking power. Hypatia, 13(1), 21-40. Allen, A. (2002). Power, subjectivity, and agency: Between Arendt and Foucault.

Today we talk with Françoise Vergès and Jamille Pinheiro Dias about the difficulty of "decolonizing" the museum, and engaging passionately with another project--creating a "post-museum" dedicated to a poetics of a common world. Leaving behind the pretensions of a "universal museum," filled with dead objects, Vergès and Dias work toward a living, mobile, and heterogenous space of art production in unlikely places.Françoise Vergès is a writer and decolonial antiracist feminist activist. A Reunionnese, she received an education that ran counter to the French hegemonic school from her anticolonial communist and feminist parents and the members of their organisations.

She became a professional journalist for a feminist magazine and traveled for the publishing house des femmes to collect testimonies of women fighting in the Global South. She received her Ph.D in Political Theory from Berkeley University in 1995.

Décoloniser le musée (2023), A Feminist Theory of Violence (2021), De la violence coloniale dans l'espace public (2021), The Wombs of Women.

In this episode we bring in a guest, Niki Fitzgerald (she/her), to talk about Witch Hunts. Niki is an NHS doctor specialising in Care of the Elderly and General Internal Medicine. She has recently completed her Masters in Applied Medical Humanities and her dissertation was titled Is Medicine Obsolete? An Abolitionist Feminist Reimagining with Flourishing and Care. Niki joins us for a rich conversation about the shift from feudalism to capitalism which corresponded with the Witch Hunts of the 16th and 17th century. She gives us some really helpful new context to better understand the long history of female subjugation — and some new tools for making sense of Wendelin the Weird from the Wizarding World!

Sophie Lewis returns to This Is Hell on Tuesday, October 4th to speak with host Chuck Mertz about her new book, Abolish the Family, out on Verso, October 2022. Sophie Lewis is the author of Full Surrogacy Now: Feminism Against Family (Verso, 2019), hailed by Donna Haraway as “the seriously radical cry for full gestational justice that I long for.” Abolish the Family: A Manifesto for Care and Liberation (Verso, 2022) is her second book. As a member of the faculty of Brooklyn Institute for Social Research, Sophie teaches courses on feminist, trans and queer politics and philosophy, including family abolitionism, Shulamith Firestone, and Kathi Weeks. With the Out of the Woods writing collective, Lewis contributed to the collection Hope Against Hope: Writings on Ecological Crisis (Common Notions, 2020). With Blind Field Journal, she has helped foster communities of Marxist-feminist cultural criticism. Previously, Dr. Lewis studied English Literature (BA) and Nature, Society and Environmental Policy (MSc) at Oxford University; Politics (MA) at the New School for Social Research; and Geography (PhD) at Manchester University. Her doctoral dissertation, “Cyborg Labor: Exploring Surrogacy as Gestational Work,” sought to reframe the political economy of contract pregnancy for the purposes of an antiwork polymaternalist utopianism. Sophie's essays and commentaries appear in venues such as n+1, Boston Review, The Nation, The Baffler, Mal, e-flux, the New York Times and London Review of Books; her papers appear in, e.g., Signs, Paragraph, and Feminist Theory. A Visiting Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Research on Feminist, Queer and Transgender Studies, Sophie is nevertheless a freelance writer dependent on public speaking and Patreon (patreon.com/reproutopia). Her lectures are archived at lasophielle.org.
