'Misophonia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misophonia)' - the hatred of sound. This is the word Laura was referring to when she talks about the condition which causes people to be annoyed at someone's breathing.

The first week of Love Island is over! Laura & Lauren talk about the week's events and discuss all the psychology behind it. Is there such a thing as a perfect face? Why do we get jealous? Does your attachment style determine the kind of partner you are? All will be revealed...Show notes: Just to clarify, when we said "capitivity" what we actually meant was "to be held captive"... !The excerpt from Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn describing "cool girl": âMen always say that as the defining compliment, donât they? Sheâs a cool girl. Being the Cool Girl means I am a hot, brilliant, funny woman who adores football, poker, dirty jokes, and burping, who plays video games, drinks cheap beer, loves threesomes and anal sex, and jams hot dogs and hamburgers into her mouth like sheâs hosting the worldâs biggest culinary gang bang while somehow maintaining a size 2, because Cool Girls are above all hot. Hot and understanding. Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want. Go ahead, shit on me, I donât mind, Iâm the Cool Girl._Men actually think this girl exists. Maybe theyâre fooled because so many women are willing to pretend to be this girl. For a long time Cool Girl offended me. I used to see men â friends, coworkers, strangers â giddy over these awful pretender women, and Iâd want to sit these men down and calmly say: You are not dating a woman, you are dating a woman who has watched too many movies written by socially awkward men whoâd like to believe that this kind of woman exists and might kiss them. Iâd want to grab the poor guy by his lapels or messenger bag and say: The bitch doesnât really love chili dogs that much â no one loves chili dogs that much! And the Cool Girls are even more pathetic: Theyâre not even pretending to be the woman they want to be, theyâre pretending to be the woman a man wants them to be. Oh, and if youâre not a Cool Girl, I beg you not to believe that your man doesnât want the Cool Girl. It may be a slightly different version â maybe heâs a vegetarian, so Cool Girl loves seitan and is great with dogs; or maybe heâs a hipster artist, so Cool Girl is a tattooed, bespectacled nerd who loves comics. There are variations to the window dressing, but believe me, he wants Cool Girl, who is basically the girl who likes every fucking thing he likes and doesnât ever complain. (How do you know youâre not Cool Girl? Because he says things like: âI like strong women.â If he says that to you, he will at some point fuck someone else. Because âI like strong womenâ is code for âI hate strong women.â)â _â Gillian Flynn, Gone GirlDisclaimer: this podcast is in no way affiliated with Love Island or ITV (we just love it!)
