reid’s Reviews > All in Her Head: The Truth and Lies Early Medicine Taught Us About Women’s Bodies and Why It Matters Today – A Memorial Sloan Kettering MD's History of Healthcare and Agency > Status Update

I thought the chapter on the historical aversion to women’s exercise (as it supposed masculine character, sexuality [though not based in reality— women were not addicted to masturbating bc of bikes, lol], and physique) and the associated origins of standards of “femininity” would be the most triggering. Yet this chapter on tuberculosis is inducing constant eye-rolls and “oh my goddd” groans.
