Brónach (She/Her) and Denise (She/They) discuss the concept of the male gaze beyond cinema and its relation to everyday life from internalised misogyny to the negativity that men also suffer as a result of patriarchy. The conversation digresses into talks of body positivity and sensuality with a small mention of (tw) eating disorders, how we view ourselves and other women and ends on a ridiculous note of talks of Irish figures and how much we fancy them.
