“women are conditioned not to feel the most obvious signal for injustice: anger. So, when frustration or irritated confusion surface at some outmoded sexist incident, we don’t accept that emotion at face value. Instead, we subdue it, shrug it off, explain it away – normally at deeply unconscious levels – and our bodies are left to make sense of what’s happening.”
