8. A No-Confusion Guide To Gender, Sex, and Sexuality
G for Gender, Gaslighting, Grassroots, And Gatekeeping in Episode 8 of Media Buddhi A-Z.
A podcast that gives us tools to navigate tricky, polarising questions with our friends, family and community. Each week, Venkatesh, Divya and Archis tackle words from a single letter (such as A for appropriation, allyship, algorithm, anxiety, etc.).
In this episode, we discuss the following ‘G’ words: Gender, Gaslighting, Gatekeeping and Grassroots.
Why Gender, Sex, Sexuality are often confused with each other, and why all three are not binaries. Rather, they’re a spectrum.
What is a Grassroots campaign and how is it different from an Astroturf campaign in the world of politics, society, culture and justice.
Gaslighting: What it is, and what exactly is political gaslighting.
Gatekeeping: When is Gatekeeping a good thing and when it is not.
