Women's Health Is Not Your Clickbait
ICYMIWomen’s health is being yassified online, from ill-advised marketing campaigns by companies trying to go viral to creators pushing anti-abortion agendas under the guise of “natural” birth control. It feels like there’s no one to trust when it comes to sexual health, and it’s playing right into conservatives’ hands. Writer Noelle Perdue experienced this first-hand, and joined host Kate Lindsay on today’s episode to talk about the real-world harm of this online rhetoric.
This podcast is produced by Vic Whitley-Berry, Daisy Rosario, and Kate Lindsay.
