IWD 2022: Busting Myths About Feminism

Feminists hate men and want women to be the dominant gender. Is that true or is that a myth? It’s International Women’s Day today. International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. In light of that, in this episode, we will be busting myths surrounding feminism.
