Not Your Average Feminist
These days, it seems like the feminist movement is only getting louder and growing stronger. And, we’d like to count ourselves among them. There’s just one problem. We don’t buy into all the progressive policy ideas that today’s so-called feminists ascribe to. We don’t believe we’re tragically oppressed by the patriarchy, and we’re not into shaming other women who don’t vote the same way we do. News flash: Not all women think alike! So welcome to Not Your Average Feminist, where we’ll try week after week, to give our own unique spin on feminism. We promise to give you a fresh perspective on the state of women in America, pop-culture, and society at large every week.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
