117. Inferior: How Science Got Women Wrong with Journalist Angela Saini
from Truce with Food with Ali Shapiro, MSOD, CHHC · host Ali Shapiro, MS, CHHC
I sat down with Inferior author and science journalist Angela Saini to discuss the cultural myths like “women being better built for parenting” or “women aren’t as sexual as men” that lead to politics damaging to women’s health, overwhelm and not knowing the whole range of ourselves.

If you’re looking to understand how science has sexist biases and how that can liberate you to be more of who you really are, without illusionary female “norms”, this episode is for you.
