Hello history fans, welcome back!

Today's video talks about female rage. Where did female rage start? Why do we feel female rage so strongly?

In this episode we chat all about women's history and the rise of female rage throughout. The fact that we can see it beginning in ancient history with how women have been treated throughout history since then.

Modern media is slightly obsessed with female rage but I think its a great thing, showing young women and girls that we should be able to express our feelings and not be belittled for it.

Female rage through time? Yeah, it never lessens.

Thanks for watching I really hope you enjoyed. Do let me know if you'd like more!

Big love to my fabulous friend for drawing my logo, you can find her Instagram @fierceandfred, and to my brother for the little jingle, you can find him as @tomarn0ld, or even listen on Spotify!

See you soon

Xx
