What's A Girl's Girl? with Special Guest Xene & Savannah
Is "girl's girl" a compliment or a contradiction? Host Kenda sits down with Zini and Savannah to tackle the term that dominates modern female friendships. Savannah defines a "girl's girl" as a genuinely supportive, loving, and resourceful woman who doesn't gatekeep. However, Zini drops a bomb: she doesn't believe in the term at all, arguing it's been "tarnished and abused" by "mean girls" using it as a weapon.
The panel debates the difference between true support and performative allyship, digging into examples of what happens when a public figure fails the "girl's girl" test. Tune in to find out where the line is between necessary accountability, healthy boundaries, and simply being a supportive friend.
Topics Include: The true meaning of female empowerment, non-performative support, gatekeeping, and why sometimes you have to tell your friend the truth.
