Unversehrt. Frauen und Schmerz
Eva Biringer / German / 2024 / 256 Pages
A man is given painkillers. A woman? Something to calm her nerves. This everyday situation reveals a deeper failure: women's pain is not just underestimated, it’s systematically dismissed, even though women suffer more from violence, chronic illness, and menstrual pain. Instead of help, they are faced with silence. Instead of being treated, they are sedated. This is a wake-up call, demanding that we stop downplaying female pain—and start seeing it for what it truly is: real, physical, and political.
