S8E1 - The Gender Spotlight

As many of you are aware, our world (mostly western tbh) is making strides every day in being more progressive and advanced. This shift from history to the future seems to be hinged on one issue in particular: #gender.

The gender subject is one we can all agree to have permeated lots of domains, whether political or social, whether family or society, whether arts or commerce and the list goes on.

Now one may ask, and perhaps rightfully so, why is this such a big deal in our culture? Why does there seem to be a gender spotlight?
