Summary

With Amol away, Eliza Filby, who an author and historian specialising in generational change, steps in for this week’s Q&A on young women and the “femosphere”. Jilly Kay, Professor of media and communications studies at Loughborough University, coined the term “femosphere”), and is here to answer your questions on the divide between young men and women, what role social media algorithms might have, and what men could do to help women avoid the “femosphere”. Plus, why might some people say that “femosphere” as a reasonable response to the patriarchy?
