Gabrielle Jackson: Why women need to know their bodies better

If you’ve ever referred to your vagina as a “front bottom”, “hoo hoo” or “vajayay”, you need to listen to what Gabrielle Jackson has to say. Having grown up using the first euphemism until a boyfriend laughed himself silly at her, she soon realised that there are significant historical reasons why women rarely use the correct term for their anatomy. In her groundbreaking book Pain and PrejudiceGabrielle uncovers this history and argues why all women need to know their bodies better. Gabrielle explains why the medical profession knows so little about female pain, and what we need to teach our daughters so that they are empowered for their own health., See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
