EVENT INFORMATION

To bare or not to bare… Breasts and today’s feminism

 

We are delighted to welcome Ella Wheelan, journalist and TV commentator, to discuss this month’s topic. Breasts have become an obsession by new mothers, anti-page 3 girls campaigners, etc. Could woman’s bodies be policed by contemporary forms of feminism, in ways no less insidious than before ? Are we in danger of reviving a reactionary view about women’s autonomy and capabilities?

 

About The Debating Salon

Founded in 2009 by Alban James and Radiah Ford, the Home House debating salon reflects the club’s values and history as a space for freedom of expression. It offers members and their guests the opportunity to directly engage and connect with thought leaders from the arts, politics and media in heated and purposely-chaotic discussions. The Chatham House Rule applies.

 

The Chatham House Rule applies:

‘When a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any participant, may be revealed’.
