Session 452: Is Having a Boyfriend Embarrassing Now? Romance, Identity & Online Culture

Where were you when the "Is Having A Boyfriend Embarrassing Now?" article dropped? Late last year when the piece dropped, it immediately took internet discourse by storm and had a lot of people in heterosexual relationships questioning and taking a deeper look into their relationships. This week we're joined by the woman behind the article, London-based writer and digital content producer Chanté Joseph, whose nuanced commentary on culture had all of us in a tizzy. Today, we're unpacking the realities of dating in the digital age, and how women are redefining partnership as society shifts further away from patriarchy. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.
