Requests:  0 Summary:  Lent Hirsch weaves her own harrowing experiences together with stories from other women, perspectives from sociologists on structural inequality, and insights from neuroscientists on misogyny in health research. She shows how health issues and disabilities amplify what women in general already confront: warped beauty standards, workplace sexism, worries about romantic partners, and mistrust of their own bodies. By shining a light on this hidden demographic, Lent Hirsch explores the challenges that all women face.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.9087 Hi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
