Episode 77 - The Branded Female Body

*Correction: In this episode, I mention the Cornell 7 and incorrectly claim that two were suspended when they were actually expelled. The other five had to attend workshops and/or write essays.

In this episode of PinkpillRx, we explore the medical gaze, why so many structures of female reproductive anatomy are named after male physicians and we also examine the fascinating case of the rete ovarii, a structure known since the 19th century that was largely dismissed as a vestigial remnant and eventually disappeared from many anatomy textbooks. From the medical gaze to anatomical eponyms, from the history of gynecology to the rediscovery of overlooked biology, this episode asks the question: Who gets to decide what is worth studying, naming, remembering, and believing about women’s bodies?
