The Wise Jezebels

Women dress modestly to stay safe around men who think that immodest women are asking for it, when in fact, we are in the most danger when we are modest in sexually repressed environments. When Tia shared the comments that stemmed from her reel about pants and fundies with no undies (@tialevingswriter) the Jezzies had to mash the fruit of modest culture and r@pe myths.

Also in this episode: Gwen Shamblin’s son in pop culture and a big segment on perimenopause and medical gaslighting.

Stay fresh, betches!
