Hot Girl Walks, and Internalized Misogyny

Apocalypse & Avocados with Peter, Shaun, and Carissa.

🎧 Hot Girl Walks and Internalized Misogyny
This week, we lace up our sneakers and take a long, emotionally loaded stroll through the twisted world of fitness culture, social media, and—yep—internalized misogyny. From silent cardio competition at the gym to the curated chaos of “Hot Girl Walk” TikToks, we unpack how societal pressure turns wellness into performance, and how influencers, capitalism, and diet culture keep the toxic cycle running.

We dive into the double standards of sexuality, the performative nature of mindfulness trends, and the fine line between empowerment and exhaustion. Also: why “What I Eat in a Day” videos should come with a trigger warning, and how body image has turned into a battleground—one we never signed up for.

Whether you’re power walking with purpose or spiraling in a matching set, this one’s for you.

Takeaways:
– Internalized misogyny thrives in “empowered” spaces.
– Social media is not a mirror—it’s a funhouse.
– Hot girl walks: healing or high-key harmful?
– Diet culture is just capitalism in leggings.
– Self-worth isn’t measured in steps, smoothies, or serotonin levels.

🧠 Chapters include:
– Competition in Fitness Culture
– Gender & Sexual Double Standards
– The ‘Hot Girl Walk’ Phenomenon
– Mindfulness, Capitalism & Diet Culture
– Living for Likes vs. Living in the Moment

So grab your water bottle labeled “Self-Worth” and walk with us—we’ve got thoughts, questions, and just a touch of rage.
