The Women's Podcast - A podcast by The Irish Times - Thursdays

Author & academic Joanna Williams explores feminism in her new book, Women Vs Feminism: Why We All Need Liberating from the Gender Wars. She contends that women, especially young women, are equal to men in every meaningful regard in today's world and that feminism has lost its way. She says the fun and feistiness of 'girl power' is being replaced by a feminism that seeks to modify the behaviour of men and police the way women should speak and behave. Our co-producer Róisín Ingle spoke to her recently and took her to task on a few points.
