Listen "Aspen's Hot Takes: Body Hair"

Episode Synopsis

Join us for our last episode of the Fall 2025 Season! Our host Aspen is back with more hot takes--this time, focusing on body hair and its removal, particularly through a gendered lens. When did it become common for women in the US to remove their body hair, and why? Why do so many razor commercials targeted at women feature a woman shaving her already hairless legs? What makes so many men insist that women having body hair is unhygienic? Join Aspen as they strive to answer these questions and more on this episode of Reproductive Left!
