"Pick-Me" Dating Tips Exposed

In this week’s episode of The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen break down the most harmful dating advice women get from so-called “Pick-Me” mentors, and why being “chosen” should never be your goal. From Auntie wisdom at family gatherings to viral advice from online coaches, we unpack the hidden misogyny behind it all. But first, in Tea Time, we discuss Slim Thug’s fixation on Megan Thee Stallion, Uber’s mounting legal problems, the 4chan users hacking of the Tea App, and the five Canadian hockey players acquitted in a high-profile sexual assault case. Then, in Feminist Herstory, we spotlight Catherine the Great.   🎧 This episode is a deep dive into the dating “advice” designed to keep women small, compliant, and afraid of being alone - and why rejecting that fear is your first step toward freedom.   🎙️ Topics Discussed: The dangerous myth of “being chosen” How Pick-Me culture punishes self-respecting women The emotional cost of dating advice from male centered women Why staying single is always better than dating a terrible man How dependency on men sabotages women’s futures What Catherine the Great can teach us about power and survival   ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned:   Slim Thug Calls Speculation That He's Interested in Megan Thee Stallion 'Stupid' https://www.complex.com/music/a/jaelaniturnerwilliams/slim-thug-calls-rumors-that-hes-interested-in-megan-thee-stallion-stupid Sovereign’s Video On Slim Thug and Megan Thee Stallion https://youtu.be/i0PbSTP_Srw?si=X1CIIYCaKKLTm8-q Man Sentenced to Life in Prison for Brutal Murder of Mom-of-Four Uber Driver https://people.com/man-sentenced-life-in-prison-murder-uber-driver-11728872 Rideshare Lawsuit for Assault in Uber & Lyft (July 2025) https://www.sokolovelaw.com/personal-injury/sexual-abuse/uber-lyft-rideshare-assault/ Uber Sexual Assault Lawsuits https://www.lawsuit-information-center.com/uber-sex-assault-lawsuit.html Hackers Leak 13,000 User Photos and IDs From the Tea App https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna221139 Man Smashes Wife’s Car To Keep Her From Going Through His Phone https://www.tiktok.com/@thereal_beverly/video/7531563693096619277 Gulabi Gang – Female Vigilante Group in India https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulabi_Gang Cats Listening To Neighbors Argue https://www.tiktok.com/@sierra.knell/video/7483444770736655662 Five Ice Hockey Players Found Not Guilty in Canada Sexual Assault Case https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn0qlwnyy70o.amp Human Development Index https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index The Egg Decides Which Sperm Fertilizes It https://www.news-medical.net/news/20200611/The-egg-decides-which-sperm-fertilizes-it.aspx   📚 This Week’s Recommendation: We Need A Reckoning https://bluecactuspress.com/product/we-need-a-reckoning/   💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or wild stories to share?
