In our May episode of the Hidden Half Book Review, join Victoria and Katherine as we discuss Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution by Cat Bohannon. A fascinating read, we’ll break down how Bohannon skillfully addresses gender essentialism, what aspects of the female body grossed us out (or inspired us!) and whether we finally bought the argument that homo sapiens were, at some point, matriarchal.
