The Girlification of the Internet

On this week’s girlpodcast, we’re just girls talking about our girldinners, girlblogging, girlmath, the girlification of food and, well, everything. We discuss how the act of ‘girlblogging’ has conquered a niche sector of the internet, the uncanny cuteness of ‘girldinners,’ the predicament of ‘girlmath,’ and how we endorse ‘balletcore’ as the future of 2024.
