Sorry, didn’t mean to suggest it was taboo, only that it’s unusual reading group discussion! We talked a lot about how sex and age is often played for laughs on TV and how this doesn’t help when talking about quite important topics (like STI’s!)

We had the second session today of our de Beauvoir reading group on β€œOld Age” and we talked about old people having sex (you read that right), classism, and Victor Hugo’s bed

Ah I see! You could go for the bulky "marginalised hermeneutical resources" but I think your original suggestion was much clearer!

This involved understanding how mental health professionals can support or prevent young people from feeling understood when they seek help. Epistemic injustice in clinical encounters is where one party has more authority and risks the other party’s contribution being sought or valued.
