Points of interest:

  • The study doesn’t just look at statistics; it uses a feminist phenomenological approach.
  • This means it prioritizes the lived experience and the “first-person” perspective of the women, acknowledging that their bodies are not just medical subjects but sites where gender and disability intersect.
