  • Why don't women's clothes have more pockets? Who are the female writers and artists my education forgot to include? How does a woman go about seizing control of her government? What was it like to be a female slave and how did the lucky ones escape? When did women get to put their own name on their credit cards? Is the life of a female spy as glamorous as Hollywood has led me to believe? In short, what were the women doing all that time? I explore these and other questions in this thematic approach to women's history.

    Announcement on Series 14
    2024/11/07
    The voters have spoken! The topic of Series 14 will be: The Woman Behind the Man. I’ll be looking at women across the ages who had a hand (sometimes a major hand) in the success of some very well-known men. I’m hoping you’ll have heard of the men: I’m choosing the blockbusters. But I suspect the women you have not heard of. Most of them anyway. The research has already begun, but if you know of a woman who should be included, please get in touch!

  • Bonus Episode: Women Who Got Elected

    Bonus Episode: Women Who Got Elected
    2024/11/05
    I make no comment on the current US election because this is a history podcast. But the entire concept of a woman running a country with even the semblance of an election involved is a recent phenomenon, historically speaking. We’re not even at a century yet. We’re not even at three quarters of a century yet. This episode will give you the rundown on women who have done it, from Sri Lanka to Finland. Then I turn to women who served in the parliament/Congress in various countries, and finally women as mayors, state senators, and even one all-female city government.

    13.14 Why Beauty Mattered (and has anything changed?)
    2024/10/31
    Throughout history and around the globe, women have routinely squeezed, bound, crushed, tweezed, poisoned, pricked, and stretched various portions of their anatomy, sometimes with permanent ramifications, sometimes with excruciating agony, all in the name of beauty. Why was beauty so important? There's no perfect answer, but I explain five theories: Darwinian Evolution To Catch a Man (economically) Outer Beauty Meant Inner Beauty Peer Pressure from Other Women For Herself Alone All of those elements were present well before the 20th century, and while economics did shift dramatically for many women in the past 100 years, did anything else really change?
