Sawbones: The Intimate Side of a Woman’s Life

Sawbones: The Intimate Side of a Woman’s Life

By Justin McElroy, Dr. Sydnee McElroy

What was some of the outdated (though subtly subversive) medical advice given to cisgendered women of the 1930s?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!
