PAGES Pod- Volume XX: Problems with Love

PAGES the Reading Group presents Volume XX: Problems with LoveThis intimate and reflective episode of the PAGES Pod features our hosts @Urfavfilosopher and @Nannearl_ as they engage in a candid discussion centered around the theme of "problems with love". Drawing from their experiences at a recent philosophy conference, they chop it up over three topics that resonate with the experiences with love and loving many of us have.First, they unpack the notion of "crushes" and ask whether these fleeting infatuations serve as necessary precursors to romantic relationships or pose challenges to our intimate connections.Next, the conversation shifts to a discussion of domestic violence and the complexities of addressing it within the context of prison abolition. They confront the disparities in sentencing penalties based on race and question why these crucial conversations often remain absent from our daily conversations.Finally, they discuss the influence of the "happily ever after" romance narrative and its impact on how we perceive relationships in both personal and social spheres.Tap in to this episode of the PAGES Pod on love, relationships, and the societal constructs that shape them.Mentioned this Episode:PAGES Pod- Volume XIX: How Does Stalking Wrong the Victim?PAGES Pod- Volume IX: Sad LoveBound in Wedlock by Tera HunterSad Love by Carrie JenkinsThe End of Love by Sabrina StringsFollow us across our social media channels:Ig- @PagestrgTikTok- @PagesthereadinggroupWebsite- www.Pagestrg.com
