You won't believe what I'm about to tell you. Women don't have a \"biological clock.\" That term was coined by journalist Richard Cohen in his misogynistic 1978 article \"The Clock Is Ticking For The Career Woman.\" This article hits the two Ps (pseudoscience and patriarchy) and does what these silly Ps do best: rush women into motherhood and shame them for prioritizing their careers.
In the words of Kesha, \"Tik tok on the clock but the party don't stop.\" Because for women, the party truly doesn't stop. That's why humans are one of the only mammals with menopause.
In fact, research is finding that MEN have a biological clock, and it begins ticking around age 35.

🎙️ About the podcast: The patriarchy is starting to crumble, but sadly it probably won't be fully dismantled in our lifetime. In this podcast, I help women exploit the system's loopholes while finding the hidden ways the patriarchy conditions us to leak our power. Because guess what? Power isn't given, it's either taken or created. And it's time to take back the power the patriarchy stole from us.
