Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss is the non-cheugy evil twin of the very cheugy Live, Laugh, Love, so of course, here you go: here’s a full episode unpacking the trifecta of white feminism. We talk about Isabel being a corporate lawyer who says fuck at work, the origin of the term girlboss, and debate whether or not Elizabeth Holmes is a Girlboss.
Also, we have a discord now! So if you’re not a Patreon patron what are you waiting for?? But if your name is Craig you can get in free. Sorry we don’t make the rules.
