What the Hell is the Patriarchy?
Manage episode 379501317 series 3519745
Jonni and Maria tackle "The Patriarchy:" What it actually means, what it means to us and how it damages women AND men alike. And how we can want to "smash the patriarchy"and still love men at the same time! We share how we were raised, our early female role models, why we appreciate male allies, and why we were hesitant to claim the term "feminist" in the past. We discuss the emotional and opportunity costs of the patriarchy - and some ways we can start to change things for the better so everyone can thrive.
Plus, surprise boy mom visits, the book 1984, homework duties, financial literacy for kids and more tomfoolery.

- "Patriarchy is a system of relationships, beliefs, and values embedded in political, social, and economic systems that structure gender inequality between men and women. Attributes seen as “feminine” or pertaining to women are undervalued, while attributes regarded as “masculine” or pertaining to men are privileged."
