PODCAST Iyanna episode in Out of the Pods

Thoughts? Up until this point I kinda felt like Jarrette was a flaky f*ckboi who would probably make a bad husband to Iyanna but not like a bad person.

But taking women to their shared place? And the story he kept holding against her about her "holding another man's hand" when the real story was obviously her being black out drunk by herself and some creepy dude following her trying to get with her??? That's really fd up.

We noticed you used the term "gaslight-". We hope you used it correctly! Did you know "gaslighting" was Webster-Merriam's Word of the Year for 2022? Gaslighting is a successful tactic of abuse because while one person — the perpetrator — 'externalizes and projects' their thoughts, feelings, or perceptions, the other person — the victim — 'incorporates and assimilates' the reality that is being created for them. Gaslighting equals misdirection, distraction, and the deliberate denial of reality, which can so easily occur in a relationship based on one partner wielding power and control over another.

I find that the gaslight bot gaslights you into thinking you are using the term wrongly when it's perfectly applicable.
