Why Women's Anger Is So Threatening (And Why That Matters) | Speak, Mother

Send Shannon A NoteWhat happens when women get angry? We get called shrews, bitches, hags. We're labeled unstable, dangerous, dramatic. Meanwhile, men's anger gets results, respect, and recognition.This week, we're exploring why women have been taught that anger is unfeminine and dangerous, and what it's costing us. From the physical health consequences of suppressed rage to the way we teach girls to turn their anger underground, this conversation examines why reclaiming our relationship with anger might be the most important work we can do.We dive into anger as information about unmet needs, why "niceness" is literally making us sick, and how our fury might actually be pointing us toward our deepest values. If you've been feeling angry but don't know what to do about it, this episode is for you.Book mentioned: On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good by Elise Loehnen.
