The One Where Talk About Purity Culture
The Wise Jezebels are talking all things purity culture! From the hilarious things they did–like Laura’s husband journal–to the long term impacts of purity culture. They both acknowledge how much more difficult it’s been to resolve the way purity culture lives in their body than physical acts of sexualized violence and some of what they have engaged in for healing. This episode is light and deep, vulnerable, and hilarious–there’s something for everyone!
We also talk about Taylor Swift and the media outlets who are politicizing her relationship and appearances at his games, do an accountabilibuddy check in, and end with a ‘Menopause Minute’!
Stay fresh, betches!
