I read the English Dictionary in short sections, comment on it, make bad jokes, and sometimes sing little songs. I hope it’s more entertaining than just reading the dictionary alone. It’s an evolving project so the letter ”A” had lower quality, plus less commenting and jokes.

I couldn't find the exact quote Rebecca was talking about with men and healthcare but Gloria Steinem is quoted as saying "If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament." There have been other quotes from other people along the same lines.

I think many people would find it hard to argue against this statement: "Feminism holds the position that modern societies are patriarchal—they prioritize the male point of view—and that women are treated unjustly in these societies."

Carina's episode was #E151 where we talked about estrogen and more.

Some say Cleopatra was a Femme Fatale.
