Are we obsessed with our own beauty and confidence? This episode, I talk about the Met Gala and the recent leak about SCOTUS efforts to overturn Roe v. Wade. Has American Feminism focused too closely on confidence, leaning in, and girlbossification? Are we losing sight of solidarity and coalition building as the rights of girls, gays, and they are rapidly dissolving? I drunkenly explore these questions while having a public mental breakdown!
