Topic: Gender norms and stereotypes

Gender norms and stereotypes are societal expectations and assumptions about how individuals should behave, express themselves, and identify based on their biological sex.

More on: Gender norms and stereotypes

The podcast episodes explore how gender norms and stereotypes have historically limited the participation and achievements of marginalized groups, particularly women, in traditionally male-dominated fields like sports.

The episodes highlight the stories of trailblazers like Kathrine Switzer, who broke barriers in the Boston Marathon, and the ongoing debates surrounding gender identity and expression beyond the male-female binary.

These episodes encourage a more expansive and inclusive understanding of gender, advocating for greater self-determination and freedom from restrictive societal norms.
