E173. Mahri Irvine & Lauren Adams Want To Get Men Out Of Women's Prisons

Mahri Irvine and Lauren Adams work for the Women's Liberation Front (WoLF). And they join Bridget to discuss their lawsuit against the state of California to protect single sex prisons and fight Senate Bill 132 which allows incarcerated men to be housed in women’s correctional facilities based on self-declared “gender identity.” They cover why women deserve and need single-sex spaces, the cultural ideology that got us here, why there's a disproportionate amount of anger being directed at women for trying to defend the legal definition of "women," how we're being asked to participate in a mass delusion in our society right now because people are worried about what other people will think of them, what the term "cotton ceiling" means, and the insanity that male sex offenders are currently eligible to transfer into women's prisons.

Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy
Bridget Phetasy admires grit and authenticity. On Walk-Ins Welcome, she talks about the beautiful failures and frightening successes of her own life and the lives of her guests. She doesn’t conduct interviews—she has conversations. Conversations with real people about the real struggle and will remind you that we can laugh in pain and cry in joy but there’s no greater mistake than hiding from it all. By embracing it all, and celebrating it with the stories she’ll bring listeners, she believes that our lowest moments can be the building blocks for our eventual fulfillment.
