Women Are BETTER Than Men.
In this week’s episode of The Audaci-Tea Podcast, hostsLisa and Sovereign ask a question that is guaranteed to offend exactly the right people.
Are women actually better than men?
Together, they unpack the growing pile of evidence that women are outperforming men across education, emotional intelligence, financial stability, homeownership, and social awareness, while men continue to dominate in all the worst categories. The hosts examine what these patterns reveal about modern gender dynamics, patriarchal conditioning, and why so many women are no longer pretending the imbalance isn’t obvious.
They explore how women have become the emotional, economic, and social backbone of society while still being expected to downplay their competence to protect male egos. The conversation also takes aim at the hypocrisy surrounding loyalty, labor, parenting, and the cultural expectation that women should continue carrying men who are actively failing them.
But first, in Tea Time, Lisa and Sovereign discuss ABC cancelling The Bachelorette and whether it was overdue, react to a woman confronting her partner about refusing to become a stay at home dad, and break down a viral video about how to “catch print.” Later, they open the mailbag to answer a listener question asking why it’s okay for women to “cheat forward”.
🎧 This episode is a sharp and brutally honest look at the ways women are thriving despite patriarchy, and why so many men are struggling in systems that were built for them to succeed.
🎙️ Topics Discussed:
• Why women are outperforming men in education and economic independence
• Emotional intelligence, self awareness, and gendered socialization
• Violence, safety, and the societal cost of male entitlement
• Why women are increasingly opting out of carrying underperforming men
• Double standards around loyalty, parenting, and emotional labor
• Modern dating, patriarchy, and the myth of male superiority
