White Picket Fence interrogates the structures of inequity affecting women since the United States' founding. On the newest season, host Julie Kohler investigates a long-brewing gender backlash that’s reached a boiling point in American politics. Join us in pulling back the curtain on an extremist agenda designed to enforce strict gender roles. An agenda that stands to harm millions of Americans. We're examining the ways this backlash is showing up in our policies, our culture—even the social media content we scroll past every day. And we're asking what becomes possible when we imagine a future beyond the gender binary.

    "Hope is a Discipline"
    Oct 30 2025
    In the midst of a virulent gender backlash and relentless attacks on our rights and freedoms, imagining a better future can feel impossible. In this season finale, we suggest an antidote to this feeling of doom: hope. Not as an emotion but as a practice. As inspiration, we highlight the unique power of women-led resistance efforts, tell the overlooked stories of a trans survivor of Nazi Germany, and begin to articulate our north star vision for gender, family, and a more just, pluralistic nation.

    Tradwives. Stay-at-home girlfriends. Femcels. If you're a young woman in America, this is the kind of content you've likely seen on your feed lately. Last episode, we explained how the Right's investment in the "manosphere" fueled the current gender backlash. But for conservatives to successfully cement their Christian nationalist agenda, they can't just appeal to young men. They also need young women. So today, we're diving into the burgeoning "womanosphere," the social media content and political messaging designed to shift a generation of young women to the right....and back into the home.

  • The Business of Masculinity

    The Business of Masculinity
    Oct 16 2025
    We're starting this week's episode with a bit of a rewind, back to the 1970s in the U.S. As women gained new rights and visibility, a backlash took shape among men who felt left behind. What began as scattered grievances soon grew into a movement promising to restore a vision of power they believed had been lost. Over time, this ideology found fertile ground online, fueling everything from digital echo chambers to cultural battles over faith and identity. In this episode, we explore how the market for masculinity became a cornerstone of America’s broader gender backlash—and what its staying power reveals about our politics today.

The interviews were well woven in, interesting listen. I had not ever heard of the Mothers of Liberty Movement

Very thought provoking
