A regular on The Women's Podcast, journalist and author Caitlin Moran was in Dublin recently as part of her latest book tour. As someone who regularly discusses the problems of girls and women in public, Moran has often been confronted with the question: “But what about men?”. Indeed, the statistics on male misery are grim: boys are falling behind in school, are at greater risk of addiction, depression, suicide, and increasingly at risk from online misogynist radicalisation thanks to the likes of Andrew Tate and Jordan B Peterson. Moran explains what led her to write her new book What About Men? and discusses the issues affecting men and boys that she says if tackled will also help women and girls.This episode was originally published in July 2023. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Bestselling author and columnist talks to Nick Robinson about why, after years of writing about women and girls, she decided to turn her attention to problems with boys and young men with her latest book "What About Men?"Producer: Daniel Kraemer

In this special episode, I'm delighted to be speaking with Caitlin Moran seeing as my daughters and I are huge fans of her writing. In this episode, she reflects on her tough upbringing and speaks about the power and joy she found with words. She also shares her opinions on masculinity and the challenges men face in society. With her characteristic humour and sharp wit, Caitlin discusses the cultural and personal implications of men's roles, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to navigate manhood in today's world. Key Points Discussed: The Power of Words: As Caitlin is a very skilled and prolific writer, she shares her love of writing, the power of writing, and how us finding the language to express ourselves can impact the world. The Language We Use Around Children: Caitlin offers her thoughts on how younger generations are facing challenges, especially after hearing how the adults around them speak about the state of the world. Masculinity in Crisis: Caitlin explores the crisis of masculinity, noting how societal expectations and traditional roles can lead to emotional suppression among men, resulting in a range of mental health issues. Impact of Feminism on Men: She discusses the impact of feminism on men, arguing that while feminism has empowered women, it has also inadvertently highlighted the lack of emotional tools available to men, contributing to a generational disconnect. I really enjoyed this conversation and found myself laughing a lot with Caitlin. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!  Resources: Get Caitlin's new book, now in paperback: “What About Men?” - https://amzn.eu/d/cSlWgWt American Institute for Boys and Men - https://aibm.org Learn more about your ad choices.

Series 9 FINALE. This month it is Ovarian Cancer awareness month and do you know the four main symptoms of Ovarian Cancer which are Bloating, Stomach pain, weeing more and struggling to eat?Knowing this information could be lifesaving as an early diagnosis can make all the difference. Our guest this week is someone who understands this only too well, Sarah Myatt suffered from and recognised all the classic ovarian cancer symptoms for over two years yet was repeatedly sent away from her GP surgery and told to lose weight or that her symptoms were simply because she was fat. Sarah is a warm and open human being, she comes from Manchester and describes herself as a queer fat woman, she told us that it took a Dr that was fat like her to actually listen, and six hours later she learned that she had a mass measuring 20 x 20 x 19cm filling her abdomen and eight weeks later after over eight hours of menopause inducing surgery, they discovered Sarah had 2 primary cancers, womb and Ovarian, and that it was too advanced to cure. They told Sarah that she should see four years, she was only 42 years old.Now five years on, Sarah shares her lived experience to, not only raise awareness of these cancers but also to shed light on the medical weight stigma and bias she has experienced, the medical gaslighting, the unhelpful assumptions made by Health care professionals about her sexuality and how surgery and a gynaecological cancer diagnosis can change how we feel and experience pleasure and intimacy.In the Book Collective we conclude Caitlin Moran's, What About Men?

Our guest on the podcast this week is Louise Butcher, who is not only a breast cancer warrior, she is a topless marathon runner, body positivity icon, a musician, a mum and a bloody lovely person.  We ran with Louise in our underwear through her home town in North Devon and got to see the love and support that she has from all the people who meet her.Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in the UK. The risk increases with age and most (but not all) women diagnosed with breast cancer are over the age of 50. About 1 in 7 women will have breast cancer during their lifetime and there is a good chance of recovery if it's detected early.Louise was training for the virtual London marathon when she was diagnosed with Lobular Breast Cancer in 2022. Lobular Breast Cancer is a distinct type of breast cancer that has different characteristics and growth from the more common Ductal Breast Cancer.After a double mastectomy, Louise runs topless, showing her mastectomy scars to help remove the stigma of flat closure surgery, promote body positivity and to raise awareness of Lobular Breast Cancer.In April she will make history and become the first woman ever in the world to run a marathon topless, and raising funds for Breast Cancer Now charity.

Our topic today is sleep disturbances, and studies consistently show an increased likelihood of sleep problems during the menopausal transition. There are different types of sleep disturbances with many causes but have you ever thought about Sleep Disordered breathing? Did you know for instance that in Menopause we are 2-3 times more likely to have sleep disordered breathing and in post menopause this rises to 6 x more likely. Sleep disordered breathing, snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea negatively affects us, both mentally and physically and can also impact our long term health. The women's health concern tell us that obstructive sleep apnoea is not just about loud snoring and gasping. Sleep apnoea in women can also manifest itself in other ways including headaches, insomnia, depression or anxiety and daytime fatigue. Not every woman with OSA will snore or snort loudly whilst asleep. Our guest this week is passionate about spreading awareness of the importance of breathing well at night, and says that a huge ‘ 90% of women with sleep apnoea go undiagnosed'. Jo Ingleby has worked in Community, University and Hospital Services and general dental practice since graduating over 30 years ago and has been in the same general dental practice for over 26 years. Over the past 15 years she has developed her interest in dental sleep medicine,  making her first appliance for her very noisy snorer husband who she now no longer wants to throttle when he's asleep. Jo receives referrals from local dentists, sleep clinics, and referring specialists such as ENT consultants and has made hundreds of mandibular advancement appliances. Jo now tries to explore a patients individual risk factors and together they examine how to improve their breathing whilst asleep with options such as lifestyle, nasal breathing and mouth/ throat exercises. Jo earned the  Masterclass Certification from the Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine in 2023 ,and teaches other dentists in how to identify and treat patients with sleep disordered breathing.  She is on the Board of the British Society of Dental Sleep medicine. In the Book Collective we continue with Caitlin Moran's, What About Men? We read  chapter 13 The Illnesses of Men – or, Why Men Won't Go to the Doctor. We look at how the gender pay gap has negatively affected men's health. You can join in with our Book Club, send us a DM or voice note with your thoughts on the book. We talk about the Cura-H awards and our time at the Women's Health Professional Care 2024 Olympia.

Our guest on the podcast today is not only an author of the book, My Life On Pause, and she is also training to be a surgeon. Siobhan O'Sullivan was diagnosed at 31 years old with premature ovarian insufficiency, a condition where the ovaries stop functioning as they should under the age of 40. Siobhan ignored her diagnosis for a number of years feeling betrayed and ashamed by her body, and the impact it on her fertility and how Siobhan felt she was carrying around a big dirty secret. She felt isolated, it was only when she caught covid and had to isolate for 10 days that she was forced to confront her diagnosis and her book, My Life On Pause was born. She is now on a mission to break societal views of womanhood, youth and fertility, giving people a space to be unapologetically themselves. We talk about the impact of menopause in your 30's, confronting your own fertility, dating and socialising, the stigma of being in your 30's and single and how Siobhan is redefining her identity. We also ask Siobhan about being a female surgeon.   In the Book Collective we continue reading Caitlin Moran's, What About Men? We are full of disbelief at chapter 11 The Manosphere and through chapter 12 The Fatherhood of Men it gave us a deeper understanding of our dads.

Now if you want to see the World a little differently or would like to be in the moment and notice nature in all its beauty then today's guest can help you achieve this. Vanessa Miles is a photographer and from a young age she had an early passion for the environment which led her to work as a photographer on a Greenpeace ship and then to set up the UK's first independent picture agency in 1989, specialising in environmental issues. Her photography career has been varied but her passion for the environment has remained throughout. In 2020, largely as a response to the pandemic Vanessa created Well Image- a not for profit organisation using creative photography projects to improve wellbeing. The aims are very closely aligned to the NHS's 5 steps to wellbeing which are well researched. They are; engage with nature, connect socially with others, practise being present, increase activity and learn a new skill. Through running live online photography workshops, Vanessa has discovered that the courses are having the greatest impact on those who are most isolated which includes those experiencing high level of anxiety, whatever the cause, long term health conditions or disability. Vanessa imparts some practical tips to help us get the most from our camera phones and we learn how taking photos whilst out can help us be mindful and in the moment whilst also benefiting from being out in nature and connecting socially.  In the Book Collective we continue reading Caitlin Moran's, What About Men?

We begin this new series with two wonderful guests, Julu Irvine and Heg Brignall who together make up the folk duo Suthering. We talk about their new album (If we Turn Away), women and folk culture, how they created Tavistock Pride, our joint love for Bridget Christie and more. The fabulous duo are known for their chemistry and humour on stage, they effortlessly intertwine their important messages about the state of our climate, social conscience, and the importance of community and connecting with nature. They champion female characters, creating new narratives for women and unearthing the female heroines of folk and they even sing a song from their forthcoming second album for us. We are very lucky, here in Devon because in 2019 Julu and Heg moved from Bristol to Devon in a bid to create a more connected life on the edge of Dartmoor National Park. They delight in bringing communities together; they run two community choirs (Wheelhouse Folk Choir and The Great Sea Choir) and also run their company Suthering Singing Retreats which offers singing workshops for adults.   In the Book Collective we begin reading Caitlin Moran's book, What About Men?  We begin reading the prologue where she explores the reasoning and need for this book to be written.   Jinty discusses flowers with names of genitalia and Lou has a new friend Mr Jones!

Men's health and the importance of having a regular primary health care practitioner Today we speak to GP Dr Lloyd about all things men. So when should a man start having regular checkups? According to Dr Lloyd, “No set age but the sooner the better. “ Men and women are different, women have time points in their lives where they have to see a GP such as hormonal changes, childbearing, breast checks etc. but for men it is different and often health is treated like firefighting. Men just go to the Dr when they have a fire that needs putting out. In this episode we look at why starting earlier is a better option for men, the health system, and their loved ones. Dr Lloyd says: “So medicine's complicated, it's fascinating, but it just shows how one thing, one issue needs a whole wider approach, not just deal with the problem, and brush under the carpet and move on. I think that's what guys do wrongly, isn't it? They'll see a GP; we call it firefighting. So, you quickly put that fire out, and actually, there's an inferno going on behind. So yeah, it's complicated and that's the beauty of medicine.” He also suggests a great read by Caitlin Moran called “What About Men?” which I have since read and is great. Finally, we talk about his recent trigger to look after his own health. Lloyd has decided to open a new clinic called Man Health to offer a slightly different approach to assisting men in their long-term health goals, listen to this episode to find out more. Hopefully this episode will get you motivated to see a primary health practitioner for regular overhaul and tune up if you haven't already. www.manhealth.com.au https://www.instagram.com/manhealthclinic info@manhealth.com.au   End Credits: Websites: https://melissahadleybarrett.com   Men's health only https://rshealth.com.au/  All genders https://www.prostaterehabilitation.com/ http://www.menshealthphysiotherapy.com.au/ http://prost.com.au/   Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/p/Melissa-Hadley-Barrett-100085237672685/ https://www.facebook.com/Restorativeshealthclinic   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/melissahadleybarrett/ https://www.instagram.com/rshealth_perth/   Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissa-hadley-barrett/

Caitlin Moran became a columnist at The Times at 18. She has gone on to be named Columnist of the Year six times. Her multi-award-winning bestseller How to Be a Woman has been published in 28 countries, and won the British Book Awards' Book of the Year 2011. Her novel, How to Build a Girl, debuted at number one. Her latest book, What About Men?: A Feminist Answers the Question is a provocative, tongue-and-cheek cultural study, where Moran makes the argument that traditional gender roles have undermined the prospects of both women and men, illuminating feminism for a male audience and proposing a framework for rebooting traditional masculinity so men can embrace more.

My guest in this week's Book Club podcast is Caitlin Moran. Having written one of the bestselling works of popular feminism of the last 20 years – How To Be A Woman – she has turned her attention to the other half of the population with her new book What About Men? I asked Caitlin why she felt she needed to write such a book, and what qualifies her to do so. She tells me why she thinks young men are turning against feminism, what she says to the people who accuse her of trading in stereotypes, and why she thinks Jordan Peterson is a poor excuse for a 'public intellectual'.

Nick and Angela welcome a bestselling author and journalist to DISH HQ. Caitlin Moran grew up in Wolverhampton in a family of eight kids and spent most of her time reading books at the local library instead of attending school. Unsurprisingly, Caitlin had written her first novel by the time she was 13. She  moved to London at 16 and began writing for Melody Maker where she met her husband, Pete Paphides. Caitlin has written several bestselling books, including How to be a Woman and How to Build a Girl and has been writing for the Times about feminism, politics, culture and her personal life since 1992. Her new book What About Men is out now. Angela prepares a tasty egg & dill salad with smoked mackerel and a rösti for Caitlin, while Nick pours a delicious Blueprint Viña Taboexa Albariño. Our trio dive straight into conversation, discussing topics like Caitlin's builder chat, how to make a good rösti and what is so special about wind turbines.  Just so you know, our podcast might contain the occasional mild swear word or adult theme.

Louise O'Brien reviews What About Men? by Caitlin Moran published by Penguin Random House

Caitlin Moran's multi-award-winning bestseller How to Be a Woman has been published in 28 countries. Now she has turned her attention to men; what's wrong with them, what they should do about it and why they need feminism to help. Caitlin joins Anita to discuss her new book What About Men? Trichotillomania is often referred to as “hair-pulling disorder”. There is little research in this area, but statistics suggest 1.1m people in the UK could have the condition, with 80% of them women. Half of those never seek treatment. What exactly is it? Why do people do it? And what can be done to help them stop? Clare MacKay is Professor of Brain Imaging at Oxford University. She joins Nuala to share her personal experience for the first time, and discuss the academic review she is doing in this area. Half of prison officers in England and Wales do not feel safe at work, according to a recent large-scale survey. Alex South spent 10 years working as a prison officer, and she's written a book, Behind These Doors, about her experiences. She speaks to Nuala about working in such a male-dominated environment and shares her stories. A bar in Portsmouth is due to open later this month, which is themed on Jack the Ripper – described as an "immersive cocktail and dining experience with a modern horror twist". The publicity features a young woman in Victorian dress, being followed at night by a mysterious man. Objections have been raised to the whole idea of a business which trades on the notoriety of a serial killer. However the trading licence has now been granted. The owner has said, "There is always a fine line when working on things like this and we are working really hard not to upset anyone". Nuala speaks to Hallie Rubenhold, author of The Five, in which she painstakingly reconstructs the lives of the five women killed by the so-called Ripper, in 1888. What's it like to go viral on TikTok in your late 80s? 27-year-old Jess and her 89-year-old grandmother, Norma, have gone viral on TikTok posting videos showing their close connection and the fun they have together. They join Anita to discuss their relationship and new found fame. Young singer-songwriter Olivia Dean, has collaborated with the likes of Loyle Carner and Leon Bridges, earning a reputation for her stellar live shows. She joins Nuala to discuss her recent Glastonbury performance, her inspirations and her debut album - Messy. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Hanna Ward Studio Manager: Duncan Hannant

At 38 she has released eight albums and has collaborated with many distinguished artists, including Terri Lyne Carrington and Toni Visconti.

The Native Women's Association of Canada has counted the names of more than 4,000 Indigenous women they believe have been murdered over the last three decades. Brandi Morin is an award-winning journalist who is Cree, Iroquois, French Canadian and puts the abuses suffered by indigenous Canadians front and centre in her work. She joins Anita to explain why.
