Happy to share this new paper that showed unresolvable dilemmas when trying to talk about embodied challenges without risk of being labelled mad or bad. Published in Feminism & Psychology, doi.org/10.1177/0959...

This is Gemini. She's at the vet because she keeps flying away. Luckily it's just a harmless case of airplane ears. 12/10 (IG: apolloandgem)
a little black and white corgi puppy sits on the stainless steel table at a vet’s office. the wall behind her is a vibrant cyan, contrasting the silhouette of her big black ears sticking out at a diagonal angle. her eyes are somewhat plaintive or concerned as she waits to hear her diagnosis, and a burnt orange leash hangs down over the edge of the table, presumably to catch her if she starts to float off again.

Written by Emily Young. This blog explores how sexism in contemporary healthcare can be traced to the historical origins of Western medicine. Emily argues that the marginalisation of women’s bodies is not an accident of modern medicine, but a feature of its foundations.
