If Pretty Privilege Exists, Is it Wrong To Use it? With Elouise Eftos
About this episode
This week on Small Talk, we’re joined by comedian Elouise Eftos, aka “Australia’s first attractive comedian.”
Fresh off five-star reviews, major comedy festival wins and an upcoming New York debut, Eloise joins us to unpack the very online, very uncomfortable concept of pretty privilege. Is it real? Is it choice feminism? Is it survival? And why are women punished less for being pretty than for knowing they’re pretty?
We talk beauty standards, comedy, confidence, sexual empowerment, online hate, and why leveraging attractiveness gets framed as smart for men but suspect for women.
