We had plans this week but sometimes plans don't...well....go to plan. So Rhiannon and Ely sat down for an impromptu chat about the things that made their blood boil this week — namely, a series of public-facing misogynostic trope.
Topics include:
> The incredibly sexist comment by Alan Sugar on The Apprentice which inexplicably didn't make the headlines. > It being suggested that Rihanna is "wearing the trousers" in her relationship, how downtrodden that makes her male partner, and what being a "wife" means in society. > Don Lemon citing Google as his source for 'knowing' women over 40 aren't in their prime anymore. > The insane situation where Tucker Carlson (and others) lost it at the video posted by Chelsea Handler showing her "day in life of a childless woman".
Finally, we talk about how sexist remarks making headlines and going unchallenged on national TV is worth getting angry about, because it has a direct impact on the way people behave towards women and girls in the real world.
