Positives to porn, cancelling fake allies, ending the stigma around miscarriage & living in the shadow of your parents.
The ladies discuss whether there are positives to pornography and if we should ban porn websites in the UK, whether it’s acceptable for non-Black people to own or manage Black platforms or if they should be cancelled, why so many women feel ashamed following a miscarriage and how we can normalise open conversations around a common experience, following the Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle’s opinion piece for the New York Times, and whether there’s too much pressure on kids to live up to the success achieved by their parents or if it’s impossible to avoid comparisons being made.
