The #Childfree Woman trope needs a SERIOUS update.
"Society still has a problem with the child free woman. Despite all the advances that have been made in terms of women’s rights, motherhood is still depicted as the idealized end goal for all women, to the point where depictions of childfree women in movies and TV often feel reductive or even vilified. The childfree woman desperately needs an upgrade to reflect society’s changing attitude towards the decision to not be a parent."

Happy #lunarnewyear to all my fellow #AAPI members. May the #yearofthehorse be fortuitous & healthy for you & your families.
I stumbled upon a clip of this from my friend's Instagram reel & watched the whole thing on YouTube right after. I didn't realize it was made in 2021, but the messages & discussions are still very relevant today.
It's a roundtable of famous Asian-American actors, athletes, chefs, comedians & advocates sitting down to share a dinner & discuss their experiences as an #Asian in a safe space.
I recommend watching it for the community & camaraderie (including the delicious food!) but also for the important promotion of #DiversityEquityInclusion in these times where #POC experiences & identities are being attacked by white nationalism.
