Therapy for Black Girls 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.
