Together, they want to explore the role of women and their place in society. They share their personal experiences and meet people who challenge their views on consent, coercive control, cosmetic surgery, women鈥檚 safety on the streets, trans rights, sex work and childcare.
Over 50 years ago, the Equal Pay Act and the Women鈥檚 Liberation movement promised change. But is life better or worse for women today?
