Gender Perspectives and Superiority with RiddleMeKat and Dani Kay

Continuing from our previous episode, and a bit deeper into our bottle of red blend, we think back to episode 2 about the "be a man" phrase. From there we discuss masculinity, femininity, and some perspectives on equality and superiority in modern times.

2:11 Gender Perspectives: Is this a man's world? We begin to explore our thoughts and opinions on the balance of power between genders, but more importantly whether that "power" needs to exist in the first place.

7:34 "Strong Women" in Movies: We discuss whether movies these days should be hyped up as being commentaries on how gender is represented.

23:01 Adapted to American Screens: When an original piece of work becomes an adapted screenplay for US audiences, should the gender, ethnicity, and/or race of the actors match the original work?

34:23 Celebrity Influence: If you have a platform, you have a choice with how to use it. No matter how you use it, though, you cannot please everyone. Still, you would have influence. In our culture, we are able to voice our opinions, so does that make it our responsibility to do so?

39:41 Relative Perspective: What we know is what we know. Individual experiences need not be compared/contrasted in the form of a competition.

42:11 Gender Superiority: People are people are people are people. We discuss the awareness and impact of the #metoo movement.

54:16 Young Life Choices: Marriage, starting a family, and so on. When is it too soon or too late to make choices about these things? Influences all around us (religion, family, friends, etc.) can shape our path toward settling on such decisions.
