Ep 46 Olympic women, Bad Feminists? & Beatrice Hill-Lowe's Herstory

It's less than two weeks to go until the Olympic Games, and in this week's episode Jennifer Ryan talks to three women heading off to Rio to represent Ireland. One of our listeners responds to Tanya Sweeney's column last week on masculinity asking why it sometimes seems as though feminists must "tip-toe around male egos". And in this week's Herstory we find out about Co Louth archer Beatrice Hill-Lowe, the first Irish woman to compete at the Olympics winning a bronze medal at the 1908 games.
