I'm taking a course on breast cancer in literature (for my medical humanities minor) and it is genuinely insane how many historical myths this class is just casually perpetuating. I'm stuck in an endless cycle of reading a book/handout, stumbling onto a passage about historical medicine, noticing some kind of discrepancy that makes me think "hmmmmm, that doesn't sound right," and looking it up to discover that my instinct was correct and the book was wrong or misleading. This has happened three times and it's the first week of the semester! This class is going to kill me
