It’s crazy how right-leaning people are warning people about commodification and overmedication while the left-leaning tend to defend big tech and big pharma both with regards to social media and taking pills for social anxiety. It’s an upside down world.
I’m left-leaning but feel that the left has taken many wrong turns recently. 🥲
Great interview. Thank you both. Just....since the mid 80's....MSM...the regiem....have CONSTANTLY pumped out their message....men,boys,maleness,masculinity BAD. CONSTANTLY. Toxic masculinity,sexist,misogyny.....24/7 365.
Not quite sure what effect the regiem expected to such messaging. They didn't say,specify.
The men they were raging about were fathers,brothers,sons,nephews,boyfriends,work colleagues. To actually believe that such "messaging" wasn't going to have a negative impact was delusional. Men have listened,we've heard. We will withdraw where we're not wanted.
YouTube suggested this video to me and I’m so glad it did. I have been thinking the same things for years, Freya! Thank you for writing your book, for speaking about it, and for being strong enough to stand up against the hate that culture flings. This is important work you’re doing.

Hi! Interested in going to the NYC Event, but that link isn't working. Please repost!
Ah so sorry! Link here - https://support.manhattan.institute/event/freya-india-and-rob-henderson-girls-book-launch/e784303?utm_source=external&utm_medium=referral&c_src=robsubstack
Just saw the podcast. New follow. I’m glad I found you. Ordering your book📖📚
Watched the whole thing this morning/afternoon, it was great. Are you going to be on Louise Perry's podcast too Freya?
Such an important topic...this just feels like the wrong podcast and host to be unpacking it with.
Great interview. Thanks.
Just wondering: Did you read the Feminine Mystique? Like really read it, not just skim and summarize.
My favorite writer.
Gonna give this a listen today, also wanted to say thank you for the book Girls. It’s really resonated with me and inspired me to write a post and come face to face with a truth that was quite eye-opening for me so thank you again and hope you can give it a read one day x https://diyamohammed.substack.com/p/im-not-comfortable-with-my-body?r=5ughcd&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Fantastic episode Freya. Great platform and you hold the cadence and wittiness well.
Love Modern Wisdom and loved this conversation. Need to buy the book!
Blown away and feeling so seen by this. Every man I know needs to watch this. Thanks for speaking, Freya!
Great conversation Freya!
As someone with a 12 year old daughter the future of her online presence is something I think about a great deal.
Keep fighting the good fight.

This was very sad
