More on: Societal Narratives

The podcast episodes highlight how societal narratives can contribute to harmful attitudes and beliefs that fuel gender-based violence, as well as unrealistic expectations around parenthood that can lead to emotional challenges.

In the episode #282: He Spin Kicked A Woman Nearly Killing Her - All Because She Gave Him A "Dirty Look", the discussion examines how societal narratives and attitudes towards women can lead to delusional beliefs and misogynistic attitudes that fuel violent crimes. Similarly, the episode Revisit - What No One Tells You About Parenting challenges unrealistic societal narratives and expectations around parenthood, which can contribute to feelings of guilt and pressure.

Understanding the role of societal narratives is crucial in addressing complex social issues and promoting more inclusive, empathetic, and accountable communities.
