Summary

Man Repeller is officially six years old. Did you know that through it all, the website's written description of what it means to be a man repeller has never been updated? Not once. It's time to expound upon the definition, but it wouldn't be right without your help. So! Using this week's recording as a launch pad to open the flood gates of what it means to read, engage with and experience Man Repeller, let's talk about our mission together.

0:54.8

Googly, googly, man.

0:57.6

And that definition says, man-repeller, she who outfits herself in a sartorially offensive

mode that may result in repelling members of the opposite sex.

1:09.0

Such garments include, but are not limited to,
