In some cases this can be supportive and lovely, in others we see toxic internalized misogyny or diet culture seep into girls role play.<a href="https://www.thymetochat.com/showmerch" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9dc770ec-10c6-4091-b33c-ca98d22e6882_1100x220.png" height="220" width="1100"></a>The fantasy of what occurs at slumber parties extends well beyond the wholesome depiction we were fed as children. To many there is something erotic about catching a young feme in a vulnerable place. Slumber parties provide a situation in which the viewer does a bit of the emotional labor to imagine the girls in isolation. Therefore it continues to frequent the storylines of phonographic material as well as horror and slasher films.<a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6b37cb4b-00a8-45a2-8917-768e33c06c65_591x879.jpeg" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6b37cb4b-00a8-45a2-8917-768e33c06c65_591x879.jpeg" height="879" width="591"></a>The Slumber Party Massacre mentioned in the episode does in fact pass the Bechdel Test, and even though all the women end up dead, it is <a href="https://collider.com/slumber-party-massacre-feminist-explained/" rel="nofollow">considered to be a feminist leaning slasher</a>.Share<h3>A Vulnerable Age</h3>The prime slumber party ages are during those ripe stages of puberty when we are starting to explore our independence. Depending on who you are surrounded by you might be peer pressured into activities or even actively hating your body. Consider this scene from Mean Girls: It is nauseating that the average age of a girl going on a diet is <a href="https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2015/01/81288/children-dieting-body-image" rel="nofollow">just eight years old</a>. This scans with both of your hosts lived experiences of choosing to diet around the age of 10. Did this sh*t come up at sleep overs? Absolutely.<h3>Trying on the Occult</h3>Bloody mary, bloody mary, bloody…Light as A feather stiff as a board, ouija boards, and divination games. <a href="https://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/cfr/article/download/25374/31235/60083" rel="nofollow">Slumber parties are a space where young folk test their bravery and power through “games”.</a> Again, the energy of these spaces drastically changes based on your friends and your family’s relationship to spirituality or demonic ideas.

Kamea shares some takeaways from her research on the legal history of female bartending, and Rose mixes another zesty cocktail for the table. Listen now for more personal stories, history, and tips on making cocktails at home.If you laughed or learned something from our show, please share Thyme to Chat with a friend and rate us on your favorite app. It really makes a difference as we make this community. <h3>Protection of the Patriarchy </h3> Reflecting on women’s relationship to bartending we see a continued fight for equal rights. Both for the opportunity to serve, but also to <a href="https://vtuhr.org/articles/10.21061/vtuhr.v9i0.4/" rel="nofollow">patron public drinking </a>establishments. Turning to Britain we can read up on the <a href="https://vuir.vu.edu.au/871/1/BARMAID.ENG.pdf" rel="nofollow">“Barmaid Problem</a>” as women attempted to create careers in Victorian hospitality. This attitude of a grave social problem is echoed in the United States and starts to boil over in the <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/779052/pdf" rel="nofollow">1940s with renewed smear campaigns</a> against female bartenders.  In 1948, Justice Felix Frankfurter <a href="https://wams.nyhistory.org/confidence-and-crises/post-war/ruling-to-protect-women/#:~:text=It%20was%20written%20by%20Justice,who%20could%20work%20as%20bartenders." rel="nofollow">wrote an opinion on behalf of the Supreme Court</a> that affirmed the decision to only allow women to bartend if the establishment was owned by her husband or father. The ruling on <a href="https://womenwhodared.omeka.net/exhibits/show/daring-to-earn-wages-for-work/mixing-it-up/goeseart-v--cleary--the-barmai" rel="nofollow">Goesaert v. Cleary</a> was to protect women from morally corrupt work environments. This was not overturned until the 1976 case Craig v. Boren. Here young RBG made discrimination on the basis of sex (language used in the passing of title nine just four years prior) a man&#39;s problem. For more on his groundbreaking case tune in to <a href="https://radiolab.org/episodes/more-perfect-sex-appeal" rel="nofollow">this episode of RadioLab.</a>  <h3>She Persisted</h3> Women have been trailblazing behind the bar for years. Some <a href="https://www.thrillist.com/drink/nation/women-who-changed-bar-industry-female-bartenders" rel="nofollow">notable names</a> include Ada Coleman, who is most well-known for creating her signature cocktail the Hanky Panky. In 1903, she was the first (and only) woman to be awarded the position of head bartender at The Savoy. She held this position for 23 years. Less well known is <a href="https://www.thrillist.com/culture/marcy-skowronkski-holler-house-bras-ceiling" rel="nofollow"> Marcy Skowronski,</a> who made her bar a free the titties zone and was a bartender until she was 92 years old! Today women make up a large percentage of bartenders in the United States but are still <a href="https://melmagazine.com/en-us/story/if-more-than-half-of-american-bartenders-are-women-why-is-the-craft-cocktail-industry-dominated-by" rel="nofollow">navigating social dynamics</a> that impact their work opportunities.  Connect with us on Instagram: <a href="http://instagram.com/thymetochatpodcast%20" rel="nofollow">@thymetochatpodcast </a> You can connect with your hosts at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/culinaryherbalism/" rel="nofollow">@culinaryherbalisim</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tastysaltyreal/" rel="nofollow">@tastysaltyreal</a>.  *This show contains strong language and is not appropriate in all settings.

Representation of Witches 

Growing up we observed depictions of witches being women outside of the status quo. In fairytales and folklore, they are described as <a href="https://www.npr.org/transcripts/450657717" rel="nofollow">ugly, old, and often living in solitude.</a> Interestingly, our beloved Wizard of Oz had a significant hand in solidifying our imagery for green witches and the classic witch costume. However, the famous MGM version of the story also complicated our imagery when they gave us <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2019/08/80-years-ago-wizard-oz-invented-good-witch-glinda/596749/" rel="nofollow">Glinda the good witch.</a> In her glittering ball gown, she does not call herself a fairy godmother--she is a witch. If you recall, Glinda also asks Dorthy if she had brought her broomstick for easier travel. In the end, Dorthy used her own power to get home but she had to endure a journey before she discovered she held magic within her. 

 

In our modern lives, folks are increasingly calling themselves a witch and diversifying our understanding of what witches look like. <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2021/10/14/tiktok-witchtok-has-billions-views-witches-explain-why/6102147001/" rel="nofollow">On WitchTok</a> we see increasing representation of non-binary people practicing magic and offering mentorship. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAYIjJCYZdI" rel="nofollow">Currently the Peabody Essex Museum</a>, in Salam Massachusetts, has an exhibit featuring the work of Frances F.

Kitchen Witches 

It is true, Kitchen Witches were<a href="https://pandagossips.com/posts/6135" rel="nofollow"> originally charms </a>for the kitchen to ward off unwanted spirits in the heart of the home.

Witchhunts 

While we like to think of witchhunts as being a mere relic of the past, it is important to recognize that real people are physically harmed because of accusations of being a witch. For more consider this article in <a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/witch-hunts-today-abuse-of-women-superstition-and-murder-collide-in-india/" rel="nofollow">Scientific America </a>or this piece that illustrates witch hunts as a modern <a href="https://www.dw.com/en/witch-hunts-a-global-problem-in-the-21st-century/a-54495289" rel="nofollow">global issue.</a> 

 

For those looking for deeper homework, I offer a lecture from Dr. Silvia Federici. <a href="https://witchinstitute.com/events/talks/state-violence-and-witch-hunting/" rel="nofollow">In this video, </a>she discusses witch-hunts and their role in the expansion of capitalist accumulation alongside enclosure, enslavement, and land dispossession from women and Indigenous communities.

Kitchen Witch | Halloween/Samhain Special

If a woman’s place is in the kitchen, why are only 6% of women in the restaurant industry running the show? In part two of A Woman’s Place, Rose and Kamea reflect on depictions of female chefs in media culture as well as the additional pressures that hinder women’s ability to rise to the top. When we turn to the professional kitchen, we once again find ourselves surrounded by pervasive messaging that is steeped in predetermined gender roles. TW: toward the end of the episode we briefly mention sexual assault and workplace harassment. Rose does provide a heads up before diving in to provide you an opportunity to tune out if needed. Did this conversation stir anything up for you?

If a woman’s place is in the kitchen, why are only 6% of women in the restaurant industry running the show? In part two of A Woman’s Place, Rose and Kamea reflect on depictions of female chefs in media culture as well as the additional pressures that hinder women’s ability to rise to the top. When we turn to the professional kitchen, we once again find ourselves surrounded by pervasive messaging that is steeped in predetermined gender roles. 

TW: toward the end of the episode we briefly mention sexual assault and workplace harassment. Rose does provide a heads up before diving in to provide you an opportunity to tune out if needed.
