Un-Ladylike

Be polite. Sit nicely. Don’t be loud. Don’t be difficult. Don’t be angry. Don’t take up too much space. Sound familiar? In UnLadylike, Nix & Tons tear into the invisible rulebook that has been telling women how to behave for generations. We look at why confidence can become “attitude”, ambition can become “bossiness”, anger can become “hysteria” and standing your ground can suddenly make you “difficult”. In this episode we discuss if being ladylike is less about good manners and more about control. This is about the rules we inherited, the ones we still enforce on ourselves, and the ones we still quietly enforce on each other. So what happens when we stop trying to be good girls? Maybe it’s time to be UnLadylike.
