Hussein talks to author and journalist Kim Mcintosh about her recent Guardian article about SheaSeven, a Youtuber with a mass following, known for giving out cynical dating advice. Kim talks about how Sheaseven uses her channel to explain how romance should be considered transactional, and the ways in which she believes women should lean into patriarchal standards in order to leverage power against their male partners. Kim explains how Sheaseven's advice should be understood in the context of austerity, and the effects it has had on millennials and Gen Z'ers, and why we must cultivate a culture of caregiving in order to foster and maintain healthier relationships.

PALESTINE AID LINKS

As the humanitarian crisis continues to unfold in Gaza, we encourage anyone who can to donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians. You can donate using the links below.

https://www.map.org.uk/donate/donate


https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/how-you-can-help/emergencies/gaza-israel-conflict


Currently, Aid is not getting through. You can donate with the knowledge that these funds will be used the instant Aid is allowed into Gaza, but please do make your voice heard in other ways about this. Showing up at protest marches and writing letters to elected MPs are useful acts of solidarity. Please encourage your elected representatives to support calls for a ceasefire, while still bearing in mind a ceasefire is at best a temporary reprieve and represents the bare minimum
