That Gray Area

Vanessa and Erinn are life long friends who are embracing That Gray Area of life between beautiful inexperience and wrinkled wisdom with humor, grace and a healthy dose of “F - you!” Join them as they riff about everything from sex and aging gracefully (whatever the hell that means!) to menopause and the other joys of midlife. They are all about challenging their and all women's views on body image and self love and doing away with the idea that getting older means getting duller. Bringing very different view points and life experiences to the table only adds to the insight, humor and irreverence to what they like to call That Gray Area.

Male Gaze - Um...My Eyes Are Up Here!

January 22, 2021 • Erinn and Vanessa • Season 1 • Episode 13

The term "Male Gaze" was coined back in the 70's by film critic Laura Mulvey, but the sexual objectification of women in television, movies, advertising, comics and more is just as important a topic to talk about today - in good ol' 2021.

Vanessa and Erinn unravel their views on sexual imagery, how the male dominated view of women in media has affected them, and where the line gets crossed between sexual appreciation and sexual objectification.

It's a big topic with lots of layers, but they're brining their own brand of humor and questioning to try and figure it all out right along with you!

Join them on Instagram @that.gray.area to join the discussion on all things women and aging, Pinky swear, it's REALLY fun!

However you get there - let's join each other in That Gray Area!
