I ran across this essay by Leslie Jamison, Grand Unified Theory of Female Pain. It's at turns illuminating, annoying, frank, frustrating --- just about everything you could ever feel on the topic of pain and specifically a female angle on pain - gynecological, mental, emotional, historical.
I've not had so much food for thought in I don't know how long.
If you've got the time and are in the mood to go spelunking in your own head and biases, no matter if you find yourself nodding in agreement or shaking your head in negation and disapproval (the author herself chases her tail of conclusions) this article is so worthwhile.
