Are you a woman who makes life easier for everyone else? Beware  you could endanger your health | Emma Beddington
"Versions of this scientifically dubious statement have caught the imagination of a corner of the internet, getting algorithmically nudged my way multiple times. Sometimes, it's set to music; sometimes, it's the basis for earnest discussion of cortisol and inflammation."
"Being a bitch healed my autoimmune disease, adding: Being the love and light' spiritual girlie is probably the reason why you feel depressed and you have IBS."
"Women have far higher rates of autoimmune conditions than men. In the US, four of every five people diagnosed with an autoimmune disease are female."
Women face higher rates of autoimmune diseases, with four out of five diagnosed being female. Social media trends suggest that being assertive may improve health, but these claims lack scientific backing. Some women believe that breaking free from the 'good girl' stereotype can help them heal. Personal experiences highlight the stress of trying to meet societal expectations, which can negatively impact health. However, generalizing that assertiveness alone can prevent autoimmune diseases oversimplifies a complex issue and disregards scientific research.
