By the Jilted Indian Podcast
The Jilted Indians are back and are we jilted. For an episode that was recorded more than two months ago, this episode is timely. What happens when a woman quits the patriarchy? What exactly does that mean and more importantly, what arts and crafts does she/they/he take up with all of the extra energy? A lot is covered in this episode from women’s evolutionary superiority (we live longer, ask an insurance actuary) to the women running for president. Join the jilted Indians for a discussion on quitting the patriarchy.
