    If I'm So Beautiful, Prove It

    If I'm So Beautiful, Prove It

    Subscribe to Mamamia

    Is everyone beautiful? A mass experiment in the Mamamia office certainly suggests that they don’t feel it. Holly, Mia and Em Vernem unpack the impact of beauty standards on the everyday woman (and it gets pretty heated!).

    Plus, your weekly recommendations of things to watch, read and do this weekend which include a very sweary puppet, a viral book and a self-helpy app. 

    And, from a very embarrassing partner, wagging work and Mia’s new boss, it's our best and worst of the week.

    We Give Our Exes A Performance Review

    We Give Our Exes A Performance Review

    Have you ever given your ex a performance review? Or perhaps you've received one? Maybe check your inbox.

    In this episode, we're using office terminology as a metaphor for failed relationships. Maybe you promoted your ex to full-time when they should've just stayed casual, or maybe they never should've passed probation. We've asked Em Vernem to explain this important and serious trend.

    There's an election coming up in the U.K. and the current Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, appears to be trying to lose. So who is in the running? And what does Gen Z really think of Sunak's conscription plan? Holly shares a very biased rundown.

    Plus, everyone wants a sexy rodent boyfriend, and if you're confused (you're not alone) our resident Gen Z Emily Vernem is here to explain.

    And, the billionaire ex wives club changing the world. We unpack the impact and expectations.

    Brittany Higgins is back in the news this week, and this time we're celebrating her. We discuss the media's coverage of Brittany's wedding to her long-time partner, David Sharaz, and why some outlets are being snarky instead of supportive.

    Plus, is 13 too young for teens to be on social media? Aussie celebs are backing a cause to introduce legislation that sets an age limit for social media access, and they want the parents to get involved too. 

    And, the separation of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. We're diving into why we love women supporting women... until that woman is Angelina Jolie.
