This episode, we dive into the fluid depths of gendered waters—literally. Why is the ocean so often associated with femininity? From ancient myths of sea goddesses to the tradition of calling ships “she,” water has long been associated with women and femininity in fascinating ways. We unpack medieval beliefs about women’s bodies and wetness, consider how queer narratives often flow back to the ocean, and discuss why maritime language and culture still lean into these gendered metaphors. Also featuring discussion of Ren's most terrifying SCUBA diving experience.
