Question 1

Is Fleabag woke?

Accepted Answer

Fleabag has a woke score of 32/100, which means it is not especially woke compared with higher-scoring titles. Fleabag follows a young woman in London as she grieves her best friend’s death, runs a failing cafe, has casual sex, and deals with a dysfunctional family. She speaks directly to the audience about her angry, messy thoughts on life and relationships.

The story includes light comedic feminist moments, such as a scene at a lecture where she and her sister admit they are “bad feminists” by raising hands for a perfect body. These stay personal and self-mocking rather than activist.

No heavy political dialogue, institutional attacks, or identity politics appear beyond everyday family and dating struggles.

Question 2

Is there DEI in Fleabag?

Accepted Answer

The biggest factors in our score are Identity-driven story themes, Political / ideological dialogue, Institutional / cultural critique. A portrait into the mind of a dry-witted, sexual, angry, porn-watching, grief-riddled woman, trying to make sense of the world. As she hurls herself headlong at modern living, Fleabag is thrown roughly up against the walls of contemporary London, with all its frenetic energy, late nights, and bright lights.
