“Firstly, strangulation is *NOT* choking. Choking is *NOT* strangulation. Tarang, if you’re going to presume to “explain” Domestic Assault/Gendered Based Violence to an audience of (majority) women, *PLEASE* at least get these important terms correct!!! 🤦🏻♀️
I really want to like this podcast, as I can see that they’re trying to put coercive control into the spotlight. However… having a man (yes I *do* know of Tarang’s *SISTER’S* tragic story), and I guess that’s the point - In a space where *WONEN* should be shouting their stories and experiences- we have a man, um “mansplaining” (very slowly… like we need it dumbed down) domestic abuse to us.
If you listen carefully to the episodes, there is a lot of time where women could just talk. Or an expert on Domestic Abuse could be interviewed… and yet… we just get chunks of “mansplaining”.
This programme could’ve been edited in a way that women really were “The centre of their own stories”…”
