Hello fellow foreigners. Welcome Home.
Today we are talking about our foreign feelings in Finnish, Spanish & English.
''...there are many ways to silence a woman: strangling, smothering, choking, put words into her mouth, make her eat her words, stonewalling...'' Down Girl the Logic of Misongyny, 2018 by Kate Manne.
Today's episode is inspired in part by the above book, the poem I Stopped by Linnea George, the story of the Elephant and the Rope, Colonialism and the subsequent dilution of languages, the Male Gaze and GOD. (yes god herself inspired this podcast).
So bring your awkward feelings and join the conversation. I promise there are a lot of weird moments...especially the one where I talk about my father walking in on me peeing.
