Only Mothers Are Allowed To Be Tired
A listener wants to know why her best friend is now suddenly acting superior after having a baby. It's 'mother martyr' syndrome and it's everywhere. Remember Hygge? That's over. The new hot lifestyle trend is Lagom. Would you let your partner dine alone with a member of the opposite sex? Mike Pence, the Vice President of the United States, has outlined his rules for marriage, and they are fascinating. A white woman was turned away from a multicultural playgroup and it’s exactly the kind of bad press that mums groups DON’T NEED. And saying 'No' is one of the hardest things to do: we have a trick that means you can do it without feeling like a jerk. Plus, S-Town, the book you should add to your pile, and Jessie has just discovered Pinterest....17 years after it started. Show notes Your host and producer is Monique Bowley with Mia Freedman and Jessie Stephens Mia recommends Ariel Levy's book Jessie is all about Pinterest Monz recommends the podcast S-Town For Questions, comments, and general chitty chat: facebook.com/mamamiaoutloud The podcast phone is 02 8999 9386 To find any books mentioned in Mamamia podcasts go to apple.co/mamamia where you'll find all of our shows and books by our guests in one place.

Do My Legs Look Good In This Power Suit?
So many questions this week. Is the price of bananas about to skyrocket? If you give birth in a Cyclone should you name the baby after the Cyclone during which you birthed? If you're a powerful woman discussing national issues do you need to shave your legs so the paper can report on them instead of your important work? Can you claim to be into clean living, and still have botox? Have you ever been summoned to the bosses office and been asked to show your boobs? When someone says "did you have a GOOD weekend" are they actually asking if you got a shag in? In a world of hustle and striving to be better, what happened to ever being "mediocre"? And we know teens want to get drunk and have sex, but what happens when things go wrong, are filmed, and then distributed all throughout the school? Have parents gone soft when it comes to cracking down? Plus, the app, TV show and podcast recommendation for your downtime. Whenever the hell that is. Phew.

Three Difficult Women
Have you been called a "difficult" woman? This week Pia Miller, Home and Away actress was in Elle magazine, described as exhibiting a “zealous level of control”. Is the criticism justified? Or is a bossy woman inevitably a bitch? Also, is wolf whistling the worst, the three million dollar wedding that ended up in court, and why International Happiness Day is a crock. Plus, if you hate your body, and you aren’t convinced by the “body positivity movement” it’s time to embrace "body neutrality". And a listener in an open plan office is on the brink of insanity, what should she do?

Death, Sex and Feminist Prefects
Cartoonist Bill Leak died. But rather than celebrating his life, many of his critics have vocally celebrated his death. Should we always respect someone in death, even if we didn’t agree with them? The Girls episode that blew open a conversation many of us had been too afraid to have. Is there such thing as casual sexual assault? Plus - have you noticed anything about RomComs of late? There’s an argument that modern dating has changed the ‘happily ever after’ narrative for movies in Hollywood.Plus, we're on Amal Clooney Bump Watch, Monique has had enough of sexualised songs on radio, Amy Schumer's new Netflix comedy gets roasted, and the Sydney School Boys who started the biggest conversation on International Women's Day.Show notes: Show notes Your host and producer is Monique Bowley with Mia Freedman and Jessie Stephens Mia recommends How to Murder Your Life, by Cat Marnell.

Justin Trudeau's Butt Is Not A Plaything
It's the thinking woman's guilty pleasure but do we need to butt out on the Canadian Prime Minister's pants policy? The world's biggest Oscars stuff up revealed one hero who we need in our lives. Is it ever ok to say you don't want a man to babysit your child? Is the term 'basic bitch' offensive or just funny? The new penalty rates decision brings some workplace tension, but it's not the worst thing we've ever heard in the workplace.... and should Hot Cross Buns be an all year proposition or a sometimes food?

Sometimes Even The Real News Is Fake
From an ageless Christie Brinkley posing on a magazine cover at 63 to "empower" women, to seeing Karl Stefanovic's new girlfriend papped in the media, there's a lot of things to call out this week. Should suicide be more widely reported in the media? We examine the ethics involved, compared to the need for awareness. Mia recaps the week in Trump, and we found a Kick Arse Woman Doing Kick Arse Things of Kick Arsery that will make your jaw drop.
