When Boyfriends Became Embarrassing: The Trend Vogue Missed

When Boyfriends Became Embarrassing: The Trend Vogue Missed

In this episode, your host Bridgette B. unpacks Vogue’s viral claim that “having a boyfriend is embarrassing now” and what that headline really exposes about modern dating culture, emotional maturity, and our relationship with validation.

We explore why the conversation blew up, who wrote it, and why the trend is less about partnerships and more about projected insecurity, online performance, and other bullish*t being fed to an impressionable culture of younger generations whose idea of news is TikTok.

Bridgette reflects on dating during her adult-industry chapter vs now, as a woman anchoring herself in a much deeper spiritual journey and why real empowerment isn’t shaming wanting a connection but being able to discern a writers perspective versus your actual truth.
