A Mind of Her Own
A Mind of Her OwnThe Hidden Trap of "Confidence Culture": Why Telling Women to "Believe in Yourself" Isn't EnoughIn this eye-opening episode of the Reflective Mind Podcast, host Dr. Jennifer Reid sits down with two leading researchers who've uncovered a troubling trend in the messages women are receiving about confidence. Dr. Shani Orgad (London School of Economics) and Dr. Rosalind Gill (Goldsmiths University) discuss their recent book, Confidence Culture, and reveal how our culture's constant messaging to women about building confidence—from beauty brands hiring "confidence ambassadors" to workplace programs promising empowerment—may actually be making things worse. As Dr. Orgad explains, "Confidence culture really encourages women to see themselves as held back by a lack...

It's Not Just In Your Head#150: The cult of being confident and why it doesn’t help women (ft Shani Orgad & Rosalind Gill) ⁠"Confidence culture constantly directs the problem & solution onto the self" We explore how confidence culture has spread into every sector of society, from self-help to the workplace and beyond.  Shani Orgad and Rosalind Gill draw on Foucault’s notion of technologies of self to demonstrate how “confidence culture” demands of women near-constant introspection and vigilance in the service of self-improvement.  They argue that while confidence messaging may feel good, it does not address structural and systemic oppression. Rather, confidence culture suggests that women—along with people of color, the disabled, and other marginalized groups—are...

It’s impossible to talk about self-discipline, accountability, or efficiency without those concepts leaving their marks on our flesh.This episode covers a tiny sliver of all the ways that the medium of self...

These messages might not be explicit, but the messages are there—and our brains pick them up loud and clear.Similarly, we might not realize that we’re sharing messages that insert themselves into how others perceive their own bodies—but many of us are. It’s impossible to talk about self-discipline, accountability, or efficiency without those concepts leaving their marks on our flesh.This e...

见树又见林6.“婚”“育”分离后，女性的困境解开了吗？“婚”“育”分离后，女性的困境解开了吗？ 长久以来，“结婚生子”被视为女性既定的生命轨迹，以此为基础的传统家庭模式，则被赋以“避风港”的神话，将女性的牺牲自然化，并将她们在婚姻、亲职关系中的劳动无偿化。 当下，婚姻和生育不再紧密铆合，家庭模式也因此日渐多样化，比如，不婚不育成立 “一人户”家庭，只结婚、不生育的丁克家庭，不结婚只抚育的单身妈妈及同性伴侣家庭。 我们非常好奇何种社会及文化语境孕育出这样的趋势，以及不同家庭模式对女性意味着什么。我们试着去分析有哪些个人及结构性因素造成了女性的婚育困境，这些因素又是如何刺激了新的家庭模式的生产。我们也尝试暂时抛开家庭内部无偿劳动、母职惩罚等主流批判性话语，讨论传统家庭模式对不同阶层的女性意味着什么、拒绝传统家庭模式是否必然带来女性赋权、同性伴侣有哪些育儿优势和负担，并反思研究者自身所属的阶层对女性主义知识生产的影响。 主持：微木 嘉宾：伯明翰大学讲师Xie Kailing 牛津大学博士生小婉 @尽道清歌_ @Lyn-Dawn 播客剪辑：微木 视频剪辑：@Lyn-Dawn （视频移步微博，bilibili，油管同名频道见树又见林） 字幕： YY, Perci 内容时间轴 0：03：27 讨论的前提：家庭的阶层差异；为何以城市中产作为研究切入点 0：04：39 家庭：一个不断变化的社会、文化、历史概念 0：09：39 反婚反育话语与传统家庭模式的张力 0：12：47 从放开二胎到鼓励三胎：影响女性生育意愿的因素有哪些变化 0：19：29婚姻和家庭的剥离何以成为可能？ 0：23：02 城市中产独生女：来自原生家庭的经济和情感支持 0：25：30 脱离传统家庭模式就意味着女性摆脱压迫吗？ 0：31：42 个人化趋势、传统家庭对风险的分担、育儿友好化的社会结构的缺位 0：36：21 乌托邦的想象：同性家庭模式对母职的重塑？ 0：45：09 同性家庭的内部分工 0：48：12 同性抚育的孩子会比异性恋家庭中的同龄人表现更差吗？ 0：53：48育儿：社会结构？家庭内部责任？个人能力？ 0：55：30 “自我实现”话语对女性的压迫 0：58：30 群体的努力何以必要、何以可能 1：01：56 女性赋权的阶层差异：传统家庭对部分女性的保护 1：07：07 作为性别研究者的反思：我们的所在阶层与我们知识生产的局限 参考文献 -Embody Middle Class Gender Aspirations: Perspectives from China’s Privileged Young Women, Kailing Xie -Brave New Families, Judith Stacy -父权制与资本主义，上野千鹤子 -儿童的世纪：旧制度下的儿童和家庭生活，菲利浦•阿利埃斯(Philippe Ariès) -Wages Against Housework, Silvia Federici -谁在你家：中国“个体家庭”的选择，沈奕斐 -“回家”还是“被回家”？——市场化过程中“妇女回家”讨论与中国社会意识形态转型，宋少鹏 -From degendering to (re)gendering the self: Chinese youth negotiating modern womanhood, Fengshu Liu -When Anxious Mothers Meet Social Media: WeChat, Motherhood and the Imaginary of the Good Life, Bingchun Meng -中国的第二次人口转变，於嘉，谢宇 -Raising Global Families, Pei-Chia Lan -The Subject of Gender: Daughters and Mothers in Urban China, Harriet Evans -Parent-driven divorce and individualization among urban Chinese youth, Yunxiang Yan -The Second Shift, Arlie Russell Hochschild, Anne Machung -新中国生育政策：你不知道的那些事儿 -The Population Bomb, Paul R.

What WorksEP 387: Context Clues: Is there hope beyond positive thinking?“Positive thinking” comes in many forms: New Thought, the prosperity gospel, manifestation teaching, self-help guides, and more. It’s hard to argue with thinking positive thoughts! But when positive thoughts become a substitute for curiosity and inquiry about real challenges, positive thinking can lead us away from real solutions. In this episode, I explore my own encounters with the world of positive thinking and how facing reality has actually given me more hope.  Footnotes:More about Mary Baker EddyMore about Ernest Holmes and The Science of MindMore about Norman Vincent Peale* The Power of Positive ThinkingMary Kay Ash...

Top Rank PodcastEpisode 40: The Confidence CultOver the last decade, manifestation-based rhetorics to “love yourself,” “believe in yourself” and “feel good in your own skin” have become guiding social directives for people, and especially for women. We see these mantras in social media captions, advertising campaigns, and song lyrics that seem to promise that, through a confidence-based mindset, we will be able to transform our psychology, and therefore the material conditions of our lives. Though it may seem harmless, or even empowering, the tendency to emphasize individual agency over the structural conditions we exist within and through is perhaps the core component of a culture of neoliberalis...

Among those workers are domestic workers, who are disproportionately female migrants and women of color. These workers, who have long been underpaid, overworked, and under-resourced, have suddenly become visible and seen as essential. What narratives about domestic workers have circulated during the Covid-19 pandemic?
