This month's episode is for the giiiiiiiiiirls!
The first half of the episode remains spoiler free as we discuss the vilification of all things pink throughout the years in both media and film. We dive into the roots of this pattern, its impact on modern storytelling, and how girlhood isn't anything to dull down.
For the book portion, we visit Velaris for a special edition visit to the series' warrior party girl, The Morrigan. Using the A Court of Thorns and Roses series as a lens, we examine how Mor's character navigates a world that devalues empathy, sensuality, and emotional openness. We’ll share how characters like Mor, Elain and even Azriel reflect broader societal battles against gendered expectations.
Buckle up, babes. We're letting our feminine rage out of the vault for this one.
