#25: She's Back! Sarah dishes on the first 6 weeks of motherhood

These days, it seems like the feminist movement is only getting louder and growing stronger. And, we’d like to count ourselves among them. There’s just one problem. We don’t buy into all the progressive policy ideas that today’s so-called feminists ascribe to. We don’t believe we’re tragically oppressed by the patriarchy, and we’re not into shaming other women who don’t vote the same way we do. News flash: Not all women think alike! So welcome to Not Your Average Feminist, where we’ll try week after week, to give our own unique spin on feminism We promise to give you a fresh perspective on the state of women in America, pop-culture and society at large every week. Thanks for stopping by! Hosted by Amanda Elliott, Christina Powell, and Sarah Curran.
