    First-wave Feminism Wasn’t as Nice as You Thought | Dr. Carrie Gress

    First-wave Feminism Wasn’t as Nice as You Thought | Dr. Carrie Gress

    Most people don’t know about the Marxist, occult, and anti-family trends that became modern feminism.
    Some people think feminism was hijacked in the 1960s by second-wave feminists. But nearly everyone agrees that the first-wave feminism was good.
    However, when Dr. Carrie Gress dug into the history of the feminist movement, she realized this isn’t entirely true. Feminism's history is laced with dark, anti-Christian, and occult ideologies.
    On this episode, Dr. Gress unpacks what she discovered when researching the dark origins of modern feminism.

    80% of women don't want casual sex. So, why is hookup culture so popular? How does casual sex affect men and women differently?

    On today's episode, Dr. Joe Malone unpacks the health problems of casual sex. Hookup culture harms mental health. And it destroys relationships between men and women. He also explains why hooking up, watching porn, and excessive video gaming make men depressed.
