If Pretty Privilege Exists, Is it Wrong To Use it? With Elouise Eftos

This week on Small Talk, we’re joined by comedian Eloise 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. Funny, honest and self-aware, this episode asks the real question: if pretty privilege exists, is the problem women using it - or the system that created it?
