Following her acclaimed books (M)otherhood and Wish We Knew What to Say: Talking with Children About Race, Professor Pragya Agarwal considers the history of gendering emotions, from the Wandering Wombs of Ancient Greece to Sigmund Freud’s ‘hysterical’ female patients - and beyond.
Do men and women really feel differently? And is our understanding of mental health determined by a set of unscientific, not to mention misogynistic, assumptions?
Prepare to get angry - but also better informed - as Prof Agarwal shares her findings with Dr Elinor Chelghorn, author of Unwell Women: A Journey Through Medicine and Myth in a Man-Made World.
