    Hysterical: The Myth of Gendered Emotions

    Behavioural and data scientist Professor Pragya Agarwal is a heavyweight when it comes to matters of equality, unconscious bias, diversity and inclusion. Her last book, (M)otherhood, was an examination of what it is to be a woman and mother, and a look at society’s obsession with the female body. Her latest book, Hysterical, seeks to explode the myth of gendered emotions, looking at whether there is any truth in the concept of innate differences between the way men and women experience what they feel.    Hosted on Acast.

    The Lowdown on Breasts

    Breasts. A body part. A source of nutrition, of insecurities, of worry, of sexual desire. Our relationship with breasts is complex, and may change at various points throughout our lives. As we watch our daughters grow up, we want them to feel acceptance and confidence in their changing bodies, without health, social or sexual factors influencing their perspective.  In this episode to mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our guest is speaker, author, and podcaster… Dr Liz O’Riordan. As a former breast surgeon who has herself had and recovered from breast cancer, she’ll talk us through all things breast-related, what’s normal and healthy, and what to expect from them at various times of our lives and cycles. She’ll also share her insights into the cultural side of breasts, taking in identity, women's relationships with their bodies, and how breasts are treated in our society and media.  Hosted on Acast.
