Conventionally Challenged

Hello women, men and non-binary friends! And welcome to Conventionally Challenged, the podcast where I act conventionally challenged. I'll be talking about social and cultural topics. I sometimes trick a guest speaker into coming on and I will release a new episode- hopefully, I haven't the best track record (I have disappeared for two years, apologies). Anyway, sit down, grab a cup and listen to an Irish girl ramble :) *Disclaimer* Conventionally Challenged does not encourage hate speech/violence against any person(s)

    Episode Four: Women in Society

    Welcome back women, men and non-binary friends. It's been awhile but it feels good to be back! In todays episode with special guest star Saoirse, we discuss sexual assault/ harassment/ abuse, what they are, the differences between them and how to identify them. We discuss the 'not all men' phenomenon and I (Anna) go on a bit of a rant. We then go through measures men can take in their own daily lives to make women more comfortable (such as crossing the road when walking at night). We then go into a deep discussion on how women are treated when they voice their opinions or simply dare to have a voice. We talk a bit about the LGBTQIA+ community and how us addressing internalised bigotry in ourselves when finding our voices led to revelations about ourselves. And of course we recommend shows for you to watch. Most importantly, remember, DM's, emails, voice notes- anything, are ALWAYS open. Even if it is just because your sibling pissed you off and you want someone to rant to or you are feeling overwhelmed. We are here. We are listening.
