Medical Misogyny 🏥 Health Under Capitalism | Them Fatales ✨ Video Essay

Описание: Women going to the doctor's face systemic sexism and misogyny. They are supposed to have a lower threshold pain, to be emotional and dramatic about their symptoms and to "just fake it for attention". In this video essay Raven and Alisha go through the history of women healthcare in medicine, bring personal examples of many women along with their own, and propose solutions and step to take forward. And what if this was a feature of the system, not a bug, to keep us barely functional, not optimally healthy?
