About this listen

[Contains explicit content] In this 2006 show, Susie's guest is Laura Kipnis, author of The Female Thing: Dirt, Envy, Sex, Vulnerability, and Against Love. Laura Kipnis says women today are deeply conflicted about what it means to be female. With most advice based on helping women obtain what they "lack", Laura says women now spend inordinate amounts of time keeping themselves and their houses clean. While Susie and Laura don't see eye-to-eye on every issue, their different viewpoints offer a fascinating look at feminism and womanhood today. Then, Laura sticks around for the mailbag: She and Susie answer a letter from a woman who says her new lover says she's too fat.
