In this episode, "Feminine Rage," we explore the concept of feminine rage as an ancestral response to the struggles faced by women, passed down through generations. Alicia Alvarez from 'Her Campus' highlights how feminine rage serves as a response to ongoing gender inequality. We delve into historical perspectives and societal norms that dismiss female anger, discussing the roots of systemic sexism and its parallels with systemic racism. The episode also touches on the influence of sexist ideologies on scientific practices, impacting medical research and contributing to the overmedication of women. From workplace discomfort to issues in occupational safety and the design of crash test dummies, the podcast reveals how a world built for men perpetuates gender biases.
