This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen are joined by Sarah, the fearless feminist creator behind Horrible Mean Bad Woman to unpack the societal cost of being “nice.” In our Tea Time segment, we discuss Halle Bailey’s custody battle with DDG, updates in the Diddy case, and a horrifying story out of Georgia where a brain-dead woman is being kept alive to carry a pregnancy to term.
In the main discussion, we examine how “niceness” has been weaponized to keep women small, compliant, and self-sacrificing, and how rejecting people-pleasing can be one of the most radical things a woman can do. We also dive into the sci-fi film Companion and its chilling metaphor for how some men view women as customizable emotional support systems, designed to serve.
🎧 This episode is a defiant reminder that “being nice” won’t save us. It just makes patriarchy more comfortable.
🎙️ Topics Discussed:
- The hidden cost of people-pleasing for women
- Emotional manipulation and the illusion of reciprocity
- Why saying “no” is essential for self-preservation
- Media narratives that center men’s needs over women’s
- Feminist rage as an antidote to guilt and grief
- How the film Companion reveals men’s desire for control and obedience
