If anyone wants something uplifting to watch during this pretty depressing time of women's rights under threat, there is an inspiring woman in Netflix's series 'Blown Away,' a competition for glass blowers to win an artist's residency and 60,000 dollars.

She's definitely a feminist and mentions it quite a lot, she seems to have both radfem and libfem views. Either way I think she's an inspiring woman who has gone against the grain and persevered in a very male-dominated environment that seems to be pretty macho. From watching the show so far she seems to be hardworking, highly skilled, very talented yet also humble and isn't afraid to show her emotions.

Seriously??She is horrible.Her nonstop running of her mouth makes her incredibly unlikable.Yeeesh!!!!

She is not especially humble (why should she be anyway) but very talented, especially in a sausagefest field like glassblowing. Though I preferred Janusz’s and Alex’s art better

I wasn’t aware that glass blowing was a ‘sausage fest’. My mother was a glass blower in the Seventies.

I didn’t pick up much on any rad fem views - they seemed much more lib fem to me.
