Medical Sexism: The Consequences of Sexist Care

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

One thing the SciMoms  have learned   covering vaccines  and alternative medicine is that only the most extreme fringe believes wholeheartedly in conspiracy theories and pseudoscientific arguments. Most people with doubts about mainstream medicine  don’t trust doctors  and medical research because of historical and current mistreatment of marginalized people. We asked Jill Delston, PhD, the author of  Medical Sexism: Contraception Access, Reproductive Medicine, and Health Care , to explain Medical Sexism and how it contributes to distrust in the first place.
