Pay Gap with Female Soccer Players
It should come as no surprise that in this episode, the topic of female soccer athletes making far less than their male counterparts is front and center. The Dames argue that if there was a push among large corporations to back female sports then there would be an increase in revenue resulting in bigger paydays for the female athletes. The Dames pose the tough question, is it sexist to watch men in a sport over watching women play the same exact sport?

The Button: The World Without Sexism
The Button this week revolves around the question, “what would a world without sexism look like?” The Dames find themselves arriving at the conclusion that a world without sexism would allow females to find their voice and space. It would grant them the opportunity to try and fail without judgment.

Gillibrand and a Grey Area
The Dames recognize that there is a grey area between a dick move and sexual harassment. The recent accusation against Senator Gillibrand not handling a sexual harassment complaint properly has the Dames exploring this grey area.
