What Would Really Happen If Men Respected Women?What if respect wasn’t something men said—but something they did?What would it look like if women were seen not as helpers, healers, or background support—but as full, complex human beings with their own ambitions, emotions, and needs?In this episode, we’re not just questioning gender roles. We’re peeling back the layers of performance, politeness, and patriarchy—and asking the questions that don’t usually get airtime.You’ve heard men say they respect women.But what does that really mean?And more importantly—what happens when they don’t?This episode isn’t about surface-level answers.
