First, we wore pink for Barbie. Then, we swapped friendship bracelets at the Eras Tour. Now, everything is girlāgirl math, girl dinner, girl trends. But is this the best thing to happen to feminism, or are we just turning it into an aesthetic? Is this an awakening for girls around the world, or another source of marketable content?
In this episode, we break down how Greta Gerwigās success, TikTokās obsession with girlhood, the ever-growing female communities formed through fandoms & fan practices, as well as the backlash against Wicked, reveal both the power and the pitfalls of digital feminism.
From reclaiming girlhood to the rise of girl-coded everything, weāre asking: Are we actually in our feminism era?
