Bisexual, Brazen, & Banned? Swati Sachdeva on Rape Threats & Trolls

Dilli ki garmi, corporate ki naukri, and a literal broken heart Swati is here to spill it all." In this episode of The Male Feminist, we’re sitting down for a real, one-on-one female conversation with the force of nature that is Swati Sachdeva. This isn’t just a "comedian interview" it’s a deep dive into the grit behind the jokes. Swati gets brutally honest about growing up in Delhi, from the confusion of school-day periods to the scars left by the Delhi Metro. We’re talking about the "double life" of a corporate employee-turned-comic and the "unpaid tax" women pay just to exist in this industry. From the terrifying reality of open-heart surgery to the even scarier reality of coming out as bisexual to a desi family, Swati proves that being "brave" isn't an option it’s a survival tactic.
