Show Notes
Welcome back to Unprepared with Sahar and Rachel. This week your favorite working moms dissect a controversial TikTok trend where women proudly embrace extreme gender roles: refusing to speak to waitstaff, letting their husbands tie their shoes, and performing quiet, demure femininity as a lifestyle. Is this a harmless personal choice, or does it reinforce dangerous stereotypes about women’s autonomy?
