Mum's Not Your Wife, Bro: Emotional Incest in South Asian Homes
Why does aunty treat her son like he's her therapist, husband, and Hinge match all rolled into one? 😬 In this solo episode, Quarina dives headfirst into the spicy and taboo topic of emotional incest—specifically the over-attachment we see in some South Asian mother-son dynamics.
From guilt-tripping mums to boundary-less beta boys, this episode breaks down: 💥 What emotional incest really is (no, not that kind)
💥 Why it thrives in South Asian homes
💥 How it affects sons, partners, and families
💥 And how we can start healing without burning the paratha
It’s raw, real, and unfiltered—with enough humour to keep you laughing through the cringe. Whether you’re a son, a mum, a daughter-in-law, or just a nosy samosa—this one’s for you.
