  • 015: The Problem with Masculinity Rooted in Modern Feminism and How It's Taking Advantage of You
    May 30 2025

    Modern feminism is everywhere—on T-shirts, in ad campaigns, and on your favorite influencer’s feed. But has the movement lost its way? In this episode of I Call Bullshit, Kristina Braly, MD takes a scalpel to the shiny surface of modern feminism and reveals a movement that’s been co-opted, commodified, and in some ways, masculinized. From power suits and “boss babe” energy to a dangerous lack of inclusivity, we explore how modern feminism often bypasses the collective fight for systemic change in favor of individual empowerment—and why that’s a damn problem.

    Key Talking Points
    • The history and evolution of feminism across four major waves

    • How brands have hijacked feminist messaging for profit

    • Why modern feminism is failing women of color, trans women, and the working class

    • The irony of embracing masculine ideals in the name of female empowerment

    • How a return to grassroots organizing and feminine leadership traits could revitalize the movement
