Are we crazy in love or just crazy? Flesh & Bold talks relationships!

Flesh ‘N Bold talks about relationships, love, and equity within them. In this episode (11th), we explore the progress we as a society have made with respect to gender equity in these relationships. Who pays for dates? What about in same-sex relationships? We want to remind you that we bring evidence and social justice to your ears and in this episode, news articles, research, and our experiences are the evidence. Stay bold.
