We kick off topic month with a look at internalized misogyny in fandom and media. Carla, from Bed, Wed, or Behead Pod, and Tiff, join Erin to discuss how internalized misogyny shows up in harmful tropes in media, fandom, and the real world. Trigger warnings: sexism, misogyny, racism, misogynoir, eating disorders, body dysmorphia, and spousal abuse.
