The One Where We Know Ourselves

“To thine own self be true” is from Hamlet. But in our Christian backgrounds, we were taught it was romantic and ideal for a male partner to know us better than we know ourselves. Ditto pastors and any external authority. In today’s episode, we deconstruct the dark side of that dependence and its complementarian roots. Also up, the Golden Bachelor Royal Wedding and a super-disturbing cult leader video with AntiChrist and End Times vibes all over it. We wrap it up with our very own 23/24 In and Out list! 

Stay fresh, betches!
