We discuss the cycle of women being put on psychiatric drugs over the last seventy years, typically a trend of SSRIs and then switching to stimulants, and its relationship to femininity. The internet has caused many women to self-diagnose due feeling there is something wrong with them and then seek out the diagnosis. Many women, against all observable evidence, feel inadequate and that their must be something wrong with them if feel unable to keep up with the demands of motherhood or the increasingly hostile work environments of late capitalism. From the popular rise of Prozac to today's methamphetamine shortage, we discuss some of the reoccurring themes women describe when seek medication to "feel better".
Plus, why women and girls are often told they "talk too much" (especially when good communicators), the never ending treadmill to nowhere of femininity, being outside the social fabric as a gay person, how economic demands create social avenues, the denial of social construction in gender norms amidst declarations of nature, and the problem with Twin Studies.
