*Trigger Warning* Issues of gender based violence discussed in a very raw and direct way. *Disclaimer* The views of each panelist represent the individual and not the group. *Recommended* Do listen to the entire conversation for full context on controversial stances and subjects. Today's episode is part one of a topic that we need to and intend to keep discussing. In this episode we are mostly in disagreement about the root causes of gender based violence in our country. It's a heated debate since we're triggered and offended as individuals as we go back and forth over topics such as men are trash, victim blaming and justification for rape and murder. Rah is convinced the hatred for women that leads to femicide in our country is instilled by toxic mothers(toxic matriarchy) and their narcissistic abuse of their boy children. The same abuse which raises daughters addicted to abused/abusive men, who are likely to trigger them by following the same pattern of abuse they learnt from their mothers. Rejoyce and Vway are convinced it's patriarchal societal pressure through the media and other males spreading that toxic masculinity that leads to women dying. We would love to hear your thoughts as we unpack this deep dark topic and prepare for part two.
