The far left can't define what a woman even is anymore, while the right is increasingly being overtaken by the anti-woman red pill crew. On Histrionics, Hannah Cox offers a weekly sane and centrist view on women's issues discussing both social and political topics that pertain to them.
The Red Pill is invading America's court system (feat. divorce attorney Corbin Payne)
The Red Pill movement has completely jumped the shark, and increasingly, lawyers and judges working within our court system are having to deal with the effects of it. This week, divorce attorney Corbin Payne joins me to discuss what really goes down in splitsville, how the Red Pill's harmful narratives are contributing to nasty divorces, and the best ways for young men and women to protect themselves in relationships.

Should we care about the male loneliness epidemic?
The male loneliness epidemic has gotten a considerable amount of coverage over the past couple of years, but the question still remains: what are we supposed to do about it, and who specifically is supposed to take action here? For many women, there is an underlying accusation in these headlines that women have caused the problem and therefore need to help solve it. But in response, a growing number of women are pushing back, claiming that men have brought this situation on themselves — and if they’re such great big and strong leaders then, well, shouldn’t they be able to solve this epidemic on their own?

Lesbian Erasure & The Left’s Sexism feat. Arielle Scarcella
Women have been trending left in the US for decades, and that has accelerated in recent years. But while many of them have done so in response to policies and personalities they perceive as hostile towards women, the reality is the Left has its own sexism problem.
From allowing men to invade women’s spaces, to invalidating the sexual preferences of lesbians, to erasing the identity of women altogether, to maligning feminists as "terfs" - the left has also become quite hostile to women in recent years.
Here to help me unpack these issues is one of my favorite former leftists, YouTuber Arielle Scarcella. Scarcella made waves in 2020 when she launched her bombshell (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzYHBPTfXCI) video: “I'm A Lesbian Woman & I'm Leaving The INSANE "Progressive" Left” - which was iconic. Today, she's blazing a new trail, creating the blueprint for what it looks like to stand for women's rights, LGBT rights, and common sense in a post-equality world.

Is Polyamory a Fad or a Fundamental Shift?
Polyamory is apparently growing in popularity. That’s right. Despite the fact that men and women increasingly complain about being unable to find ONE suitable partner, the number of adults under 30 who think open marriages are a good idea has crossed the 50% threshold.
What does this push to further breakdown monogamous marriage and nuclear families mean for dating, society, and our political system? And do these arrangements truly serve those who are opting into them?

Passport Bros Exposed: The Dark Reality Behind Their Desperation
It’s no secret men are struggling in the US - not least of which when it comes to securing a mate. According to a 2023 Pew Research Center report, 63% of young men are single, compared to 34% of young women.
In response, red pill grifters are encouraging men to explore “passport bro-ing” - a more favorable sounding term for what we used to just call “getting a mail-order bride.”

Why Women Are Done Raising Man-Children
A well-meaning man on Twitter recently went mega-viral after stating that men are happy to help their wives in the home - as long as the woman provides them with a list!
Women pounced, pointing out they are no more capable of looking around a home and noticing what needs to be done than a man is.

When a Compliment Goes Wrong: Understanding the Reddit Gender Debate
Last week, an anonymous female reddit user posted the shot heard round the internet when she described relationship issues that ensued after she told her boyfriend she saw him as marriage material vs a hookup. Men were OUTRAGED and claimed this was amongst the worst things a woman could say to her man. Women felt...differently. The post sparked a full fledged gender war between men and women, revealing huge differences in communication, values, and preferences worth examining.

Red Pill Lies Exposed: Age, Attraction, and the Reality of Relationships
Just like some forms of Islam promise devotees virgins in heaven, the Red Pill movement promises its cult that young women will be all over them when they're older.
According to the grifters in this movement, women "hit the wall" at age 30 while men continue to rise and thrive - luring women in their late teens and 20s well into their golden years.
Back to reality though, women in their 30s are doing just fine. And while a few men may be able to catch the attention of younger women, they're the types with lots of money, fame, or insanely good looks - aka, they're the same guys that did well with women in their youth as well.
This mentality is not only laughable, it's really dangerous for young men caught in the Red Pill web. Why would any woman want to be with a man who only values her for her youth and reproductive organs? And even if a man does manage to obtain wealth, fame, or good looks in order to obtain the elusive model in her 20s, these relationships really boil down to transactional ones in which the man accepts he will be used but not loved, and in which he knows the woman making the exchange is as lacking of good character as he is.

A Rough News Cycle for Women
The news cycle has been absolutely stacked for the past couple of weeks, and many of the trending stories are frankly so depressing to consume as a woman. From JD Vance's attacks on single women and childless adults, to a hit piece on Ballerina Farms and her family, to disgusting abuse directed at Olympian Ilona Maher, to conservatives like Ben Shapiro losing their minds over just the mere sight of a woman enjoying her life it seems like the hits and attacks just keep coming.
Join me as I work through the ins and outs of all these stories as well as their impact on women and our political system at large.

The psychology of BRIDEZILLAS and other female narcissists
The wedding industry has come completely off the tracks. People are taking on massive debt, stressing out their friends and family, and creating financial strain in their marriages that are just beginning - all for a few hours and some photos. What's driving the increase in "bridezillas"? Is it true there are no warning signs for this type of woman before an engagement? And is capitalism driving all this madness, or is there something else going on beneath the surface?

The Dark Side of Marrying for Money
Women are rightfully fed up with a lot of the treatment they're experiencing from men in romantic relationships.
But does marrying for money provide insurance against the inherent risks relationships with men pose?
While a growing number of feminist voices are encouraging younger women to prioritize finances, their advice ignores the threats such power imbalances carry - as well as a significant body of research that indicates such couplings are destined for disaster.

The DEADBEAT Dad epidemic
The right-wing adjacent "red pill" sphere has the MOST animosity for single moms - which is bizarre for a number of reasons. Can anyone seriously claim to be pro-life or pro-family if they hate single moms? And shouldn't the public shaming be for the deatbeat dads that have abandoned their families (physically or mentally) versus the women holding it down? This week we discuss the many forms a "deadbeat" dad can take, the reasons women end up going it alone, and the need for society to socially deal with men who behave this way.

Are 'older' women just bitter and jealous of the attention younger women get?
The campaign to malign older women - particularly those who never wed - and make younger women both fearful of becoming them and distrustful of their advice is nothing new.
In reality, the war between older and younger women is mostly a one sided beef. The vast majority of "older" women feel protective of younger women and want to save them from some of the heartbreaks and mistakes they made - especially with creepy older men who lurked around in their teens and twenties.
So who ACTUALLY benefits from this narrative? And what's the true agenda behind it? This week we dig in.

Green Flag Men DO Exist!
This show spends a lot of time detailing the bad behavior men are dealing with from men - both online and in real life.
But good men ARE out there - it's just that women don't always know how to spot them. Movies and entertainment tell women they need grand gestures and over the top experiences from a man, when in reality, the green flags are often more subtle.
This week we're covering what green flags make for a good partner.

Is it "masculine" to fear rejection?
A shocking number of men have never approached a woman IRL, even more haven't done so in over a year. Despite what the red pill claims (this is due to feminism or #metoo) studies actually show the reason is much more simple: they're afraid of rejection.
Is a fear of rejection masculine, or is it in and of itself a deal breaker for most women? I argue the latter.
Anyone who wants what's best for them would be helping them conquer their fears and overcome them - and since I do - this week I'm offering an analysis on the situation as well as some friendly feminine advice.

Dating HORROR stories from women
For all the complaining out of the red pill community from dissatisfied men, you'd think they were the ones with the worst dating stories and battle scars. But upon examination, it seems without question that women are actually having a much worse go of it.
Join me as I present my findings on some of women's horror stories in (and seeking) relationships.

1 thing "red pill" men and modern feminists have in common!
In physics, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. In politics, every movement has an overcorrection. Thus is the case with the current "red pill" movement - which claims to have arisen in reaction to modern feminism, but upon closer examination, is actually just the same ideology repackaged for men. Join me this week as I discuss how the horseshoe theory has struck again.

Defending the 'Boss Babes' from Red Pill JERKS
The red pill community loves to pile on "boss babes" - by which they mostly just mean women who are out of their league and make more money than they do.
But most of these women aren't even trying to alpha female - they WANT to get married and are actively seeking to work on themselves to attract the kind of partner they want.
I've had it with the bullying. Join me for my full-chest defense of the boss babes.
