92. Modern Women's Dilemma

Real English Radio

In her article titled "A Partial Explanation of Zoomer Girl Derangement,” writer Zinnia, talks about the changes girls go through as they become women, focusing on how society views them. She explains the mixed feelings girls have about getting attention from men, feeling both powerful and vulnerable. Zinnia also criticizes how social media and modern culture affect young women, making it hard for them to understand their worth. She suggests that girls need honest advice to balance their desires and the pressures they face as they grow up. In today’s episode, I’ll be reading the article to you and leaving you with something to think about.
