The Genderless Womb? Redefining Our Language as Herbalists

I can just hear your questions rolling... "What could you possibly mean by a genderless womb?" "Aren't wombs inherently located in female bodies?""Oh, no, are we getting into the topic of gender, now?""In what universe do men have wombs?"Well, my friends, this podcast episode dives into all of these topics and more. And it doesn't just cover the gender spectrum (though that's super important), but also some of what science has uncovered about the myth of biological sexes, too. At the most basic level, wombs are wombs. Women, non-binary and trans folks all have them. And everyone is welcome here. This is my imperfect attempt to express that. Listen to this episode to learn:why what words we use matters, and how exclusive the word "women" can feel exclusivehow gender is based on cultural conditioning, not a cross-cultural facta little about the normalized "third gender" in Oaxaca, Mexicothat biological sex is NOT as simple as we were taught it wasabout how relatively common (as in not actually rare) intersex folks arethat our cells can actually be different genders from each other and how that impacts things like sex hormones in our bodieshow folks with wombs exist across the gender (and sex) spectrumResources mentioned in this episode:Go check out the NERDY REFERENCES & SHOWNOTES for some of the sciencePlan your garden with the GARDENING FOR YOUR MENSTRUAL HEALTH guideIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend or on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdom.  And leave a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating & write a review!
