    Beyond the Binaries: Interrogating Masculinity through a Gender Lens

    Trigger Warnings: Mentions of Sexual Assault, and Murder.    In this episode of Spilling the Equalitea, we’re diving into the messy world of modern masculinity. From Netflix’s Adolescence to the rise of Red Pill content and the toxic pull of the Manosphere, we ask: what’s really going on with boys today?    We also unpack the disturbing Pelicot sexual assault case in France and what it reveals about consent, power, and silence. To finish off we offer alternatives on deconstructing masculinities towards more sustainable embodiment in a constantly evolving society. We’re serving up fresh takes and alternative ways to raise, support, and imagine better masculinities.    Sip your tea, this one’s hot.

    Trad Wives & the Economy of Care: A Feminist Political Lens

    In this episode, we unpack the rise of the "trad wife" movement through the lens of feminist political economy. What does it mean when women choose traditional gender roles today—and how do unpaid domestic labour, online subcultures, and neoliberal capitalism all play into this choice? From homemaking influencers to hidden inequalities in labour, we explore how the politics of care, gender, and class intersect in both private homes and public online discourse. Is it empowerment, backlash, or something more complex? Tune in for our deep dive into the trad wife phenomenon.
