Karen Wheeler wore a vagina necklace on 'Stranger Things 3' and you didn't even notice

Feminist queen. - by Bianca Mastroianni
  • 09 Jul 2019

If you've yet to finish season three of Stranger Things, or even if you're in the middle of it, THIS is the detail everyone is talking about. 

WATCH the trailer for Stranger Things season 3 below:

Season three of Stranger Things was full of character developments worth writing home about. 

And one character that went UP in our books was Mrs. Karen Wheeler - Mike and Nancy Wheeler's mum, played by Cara Buono.

In season one and two Mrs Wheeler had a strained relationship with daughter Nancy (played by  Natalia Dyer), most times being an over-bearing, over-protective mum.

However, season three has transformed Karen into a feminist icon that pushed her daughter to pursue her instincts, all while wearing a VAGINA NECKLACE.

See below!

In "Chapter Four: The Sauna Test," Karen has a heart to heart with Nancy about her ambition to be a journalist and how her job is panning out.

If you look closely, you can see the vagina necklace - with added pearl for effect.

Fans noticed the detail, showing support for the accessory choice.

The necklace clearly makes a feminist statement, especially since she's wearing it while giving her daughter the pep-talk she needs. Or, it could just be a subliminal message for Billy.

The series overall has been another smash, with all the faves from the first two seasons returning.

The EPIC season includes Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) and Mike (Finn Wolfhard).

The hit E.T. inspired series third season is available in full on Netflix from July 4.
