Ep. 40: Let's Talk: God, Guys, and Boundaries
from We Are More: Sisters Talk Faith & Feminism · host Alyssa & Bri
We're digging into Danae Dobson’s Let’s Talk... again, and wow—it’s a lot. From telling girls to tone down their personalities to teaching that courtship is just a prelude to being “married off,” this book is a time capsule of bad advice. And the “Let’s Talk About Boys” chapter? Let's just say that a chapter interviewing teenage boys about what they find attractive in girls is as gross and shallow as you’d expect. Why were we all told to be less and look perfect just to be “worthy”?If you grew up reading this book or anything like it, you’ll want to tune in. We have so so very many thoughts.
