When a woman eats in public it violates all kinds of unwritten assumptions about how women "should" act, and gives licence to those who wish to shame them.
“I'd much rather eat pasta and drink wine than be a size zero.” Sophia Loren 1965.
I have experienced this on various occasions, people have said “haven’t you had enough” or “you’re eating again”. Some don’t have to say a word you could be minding your own business and a stranger or partner or maybe your family member makes you feel shameful or uncomfortable just because how dare you as a women enjoy your fucking food
There is one thing that would get to me growing up my mam always prioritised a man’s plate like bigger potions, must be served first and it always seemed unnatural to me like,why ?
as women we shouldn’t think it’s selfish to look after ourselves first or equally but being a people pleaser shouldn’t be normalised…because your daughters and sons will notice these traditional ways or chains and it will effect them more than we think I myself am speaking as a daughter. I notice myself occasionally seeping into old habits and I sit back and remember that’s not the woman I am 🗣️

Hysteria was focused on the belief that the very presence of a uterus must cause these symptom. Hysteria was a medical diagnosis in the Middle Ages for women who didn't bow to patriarchy. The word still retains shards of its sexist past.
