This week Annie tells the amazing story of the Edinburgh Seven. These brave and courageous women paved the way for women to study medicine and were the first female students allowed to graduate as doctors in the UK. The fight for their rightful position amongst the men in this space went down as one of the milestone events for women in medical history. We also chat MAFS (obvs), The Bee Gees, shit internet providers and shit restaurants.
CITN this week is @thenastywomanclub - the place to for all things sex, body positivity, intersectional feminism & pop culture.
