Paris Paloma: Patriarchy Is The Crack Running Through Our Lives

Bu bölüm hakkında

<p>Paris Paloma has cemented herself as one of the most exciting new voices in music. Her breakout hit <em>Labour</em> became a global feminist anthem, giving millions of women a language for experiences they'd struggled to put into words. Now, after touring with Florence + The Machine and building a devoted worldwide fanbase, she's showing that the most powerful protest songs don't always have to shout.</p><p>In this episode, Paris joins Anita to talk about growing up rejecting traditional ideas of femininity and why she no longer identifies with the label of 'tomboy'. She opens up about living with OCD and her mental health, rejecting diet culture, and what it means to create art in a world that still judges women through the male gaze.</p><p>Together, Anita and Paris explore feminism, the rise of the manosphere and red-pill culture, the misogynistic backlash she's faced online, and why, despite writing songs fuelled by righteous anger, Paris believes softness can be one of the most radical forms of resistance.</p><p>This is a conversation about reclaiming womanhood, rejecting societal expectations, and finding strength without sacrificing tenderness.</p><br><p><strong>Content warning:</strong> This episode contains discussions about rape, sexual assault and sexual violence.
