Divided States of Women
Too often, women are thought of as a monolithic bloc, and they were often discussed that way throughout the 2016 election. But women are in fact divided on major issues. Liz Plank (a progressive) and Hitha Herzog (a conservative) are friends who get along, but don't always agree. Together, they cover the complicated, multifaceted, intersectional debates that make up the life of the modern American woman. Produced by the Vox Media Podcast Network.

Frustrating
2017-10-17
To me, this is basically reliving conversations where people are unaware of their many biases. I find it frustrating that the republican woman cannot understand, for example, how Hugh Hefner is NOT a feminist. Her understanding of empowerment and feminism is just so very very basic. And not inclusive at all. This is going to be one long parade of intelligent and aware guests trying to enlighten this woman and one day she just might get there. But to me, it's a rerun of my every day struggle in conversations with others. I don't really want to relive it in my spare time. I truly empathize with the liberal woman and I guess the thought is that she can use this podcast to mobilize resources to eventually break through to her conservative friend, and maybe change a few conservative minds who are listening. But, it's just exhausting to live this, then have to listen to a women perpetuate bias. No thanks.
amazing women
