When I say the word femininity, what comes to mind? What words would you use to describe femininity? Do you think things associated with femininity are less important or valid than things associated with masculinity? Have you ever thought about it before? On this episode of Do We Know Things, I interview Dr. Rhea Ashley Hoskin, a femme researcher known for her work on Femme Theory and her work on femmephobia, which identifies the ways society devalues and regulates femininity. I will tell my story of understanding my own internalized femmephobia and how I learned to rethink femininity. Dr. Hoskin will share knowledge and research on these topics to explain how femmephobia infiltrates our daily lives and why it is important to understand and challenge our biases about femininity.Femininity!
