I have gritted my teeth and borne it because I believe that’s what other women do, that’s what women are expected to do. Because, as a woman, my body is supposed to be a site of pain. And pain is something women are meant to be silent about, from the pain of bleeding to the pain of waxing to the pain of not measuring up. Our pain is not important. Our bodies are not important. Pain is the real tax we pay, and poor health is the dividend we reap.
