Episode 12: East X West

Stereotypes!!!!! What roles do they play in your relationship? Given that we’re from different cultures, we’ve always had to navigate stereotypes brought on by ourselves and others. Let’s just say your subconscious stays packing a bit of implicit bias and it happens to make its way into conversations, arguments etc. In today’s episode, we discuss some of the things we were surprised to learn about each other when we started dating.

We address obvious stereotypes and the ways we’ve seen them affirmed or refuted based on our natural tendencies. Do you know any stereotypes that have affected the way you relate with others? Do you know any couples who have struggled? Heck, are you currently struggling?
