These ideologues are confident that these power structures enslave women and prevent them from fulfilling their professional aspirations.

Anecdotal evidence gets extrapolated into societal plagues and the moral panic intensifies. Check out the episode below to get a sense of where women’s well-being ACTUALLY stands.
