Sawbones: The Intimate Side of a Woman’s Life

Sawbones: A Marital Tour of Misguided Medicine - A podcast by Justin McElroy, Dr. Sydnee McElroy - Tuesdays

Categories:

What was some of the outdated (though subtly subversive) medical advice given to cisgendered women of the 1930s? Dr. Sydnee and Justin aim to answer that with The Intimate Side of a Woman’s Life by Leona W. Chalmers, with all sorts of tips about douching, period cramps, and sex energy. Thanks to Olivia for sending in the book! Music: "Medicines" by The Taxpayers https://taxpayers.bandcamp.com/
