Episode 7: Women in History – Rewriting the Narrative

In this episode, we dive into *Chapter 2: History* (pages 101–116), where Beauvoir traces the historical roots of women’s subordination. She examines how ancient societies, religious traditions, and political systems have shaped—and often limited—women’s roles across time. From early matriarchal myths to the rise of patriarchy, this chapter offers a sharp analysis of how history has been written by and for men, often erasing women’s contributions.Join us as we reflect on how these historical narratives continue to influence modern gender dynamics and what it means to reclaim women’s place in history.
