Introducing Season 2: Visible Women with...

TORTOISE MEDIA
About this episode

How do we fix a world designed for men? In this ambitious second season, Caroline will investigate data gaps in everything from endometriosis to the economy, concussions to contraception -- and she’ll revisit her old nemesis: the queue at the ladies’ toilets. You’ll hear Caroline and the Visible Women team tackle decades-old myths about female reproductive health, and hear more from the people fighting to change things. You might even find out whether menstrual blood can really kill your husband.
