Challenging Femme Phobia: A Deep Dive into Femme Theory with Dr. Rhea Ashley Hoskin

So walking a tightrope serves the patriarchy by keeping particular people off balance and, in turn, out of the realm of power, because, if you think about it, their cognitive energy is constantly being depleted.
Ever wondered why femmes often find themselves underestimated and policed, no matter the community they belong to? In this eye-opening episode of 'A Stripper's Guide', host Leilah Feinstein sits down with Dr. Rhea Ashley Hoskin, a pioneering voice in Femme Theory. Together, they unravel the layers of sexism, misogyny, and femme phobia that affect marginalized groups daily. From sex workers to corporate professionals, many femmes experience harassment and behavioral policing both at work and in their personal lives. Dr.
Hoskin shares her insights on how these experiences are often overlooked yet profoundly impactful. The discussion also delves into the academic world, exploring the importance of including femme narratives in research and societal conversations. This episode isn't just an academic lecture; it's a heartfelt conversation that encourages listeners to rethink their perceptions of femininity and power. Tune in for a blend of personal anecdotes, scholarly insights, and a touch of humor that makes complex topics accessible and engaging.
