‘You’ve got guts yaaa!’ How many times have you been called gutsy or brave for doing something... well normal? An early morning run alone? A solo trip? Moving to a new city? Are they acts of bravery? Or are they normal things that get cast as brave because you’re a woman doing it? And what about all the times you did these things and... nothing bad happened?
TW: Mature themes and language. Listener discretion is advised.
Written and produced by Radhika Viswanathan and Samyuktha Varma. Our Associate Producer is Menaka Raman. Our Sound Producer is Erwick D’Souza.

Yes, it’s exactly what you think it is. Long before we got unsolicited dick picks in our DMs and inboxes, we got them unsolicited irl.
