    029. estamos saliendo mucho: gender constructs in the home

    buckle up as we untangle a messy subject - the double standards we were raised with as dictated by gender. in this chatty episode carmen and fryda get into what it was like growing up in miami in the 90s, watching the women and men around us, and what gender meant at home. prepare for funny stories, latino parent logic, and the constructs we are still learning to reject.
