In the novel, a virtuous young lady is […]

After […]

Abstract: Femtech is the collective name for technologies that address female health needs.

Abstract: Pregnancy has been a life-changing experience for me.

Abstract: When feminists speak about sexuality they sometimes refer to social and political power structure, sometimes to procreation, others speak about pleasure practices or subcultures and even others refer to questions of identity.

An open secret at the time, the relationship was tolerated and even encouraged by the […]
Abstract: When protesters against compulsory Covid-vaccination and face masks shouted ‘my body, my right’, this slogan strangely reverberated earlier feminist demands of bodily autonomy.
