About this listen
Have you ever heard the term "hysterical" used to describe your reaction to something? Did you also happen to be a woman? Today, I ask Google Gemini about the history behind this term and its negative consequences on women.
The following podcast episode discusses the historical concept of women's hysteria. It's important to note that hysteria is no longer considered a valid medical diagnosis. The term was used to pathologize women's experiences and limit their autonomy. This episode aims to provide a historical understanding of hysteria and its harmful effects, not to promote or perpetuate harmful stereotypes.
