Lies You've Been Told About Being the Good Girl with Elise Loehnen
Manage episode 435183173 series 2809282
Today, we're unraveling the knotty history of the seven deadly sins and shining a light on some surprising historical tidbits. Buckle up because your perception of virtue and vice is about to get a playful shake-up!
Did you ever wonder where the idea of The Seven Deadly Sins came from? Well, buckle up because today we’re joined by our special guest Elise Loehnen, who is the host of the podcast, “Pulling the Thread”, and author of the New York Times Bestseller, ON OUR BEST BEHAVIOR: THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS AND THE PRICE WOMEN PAY TO BE GOOD. It turns out, they were first discussed not by Moses or Jesus, but by a fourth-century monk named Evagrius Ponticus, who, after a spicy scandal, decided to jot down what he considered the eight pesky 'demons' of daily life. And yes, there were originally eight!
But hold onto your hats - that’s not all! We journeyed through how these so-called 'sins' have seeped into our view of femininity. From the historical mistreatment and misunderstanding of Mary Magdalene, all the way to modern challenges women face, like feeling the need to police each other and subjugate their desires to societal expectations.
This is not your typical Bible study class! Whether you’re a history buff, a feminist, or someone who loves a good old deep dive into cultural norms, this episode is your ticket to thinking differently about the world around you.
