This episode reflects on the Legally Hers podcast miniseries and brings together the key insights from our conversations with our guest, including feminist scholars, a Member of Parliament, and a filmmaker.
In this episode, we revisit key threads from all our conversations and connect the main themes. We return to the questions that guided us at the start and share how our perspectives on them have evolved. We explore questions such as: What is the female gaze? How is it expressed, represented, and understood in the world around us? And what does it truly mean to centre someone’s lived experience within law, policy, and systems of justice?
At the heart of this episode is a central feminist idea: to truly understand someone’s lived reality, we must move beyond what society thinks women need and instead listen deeply to what women themselves say they need. Feminism, then, becomes a fight for equal value, dignity, and recognition, one that requires solidarities among women from all walks of life.
We also discuss Prathiksha’s dream for the world and reflect on what solidarity could mean for womanhood in the future.
