Abstract
Abstract The 1970s was a crucial decade in the historiography of medicine, and it also witnessed a new political movement. This article will explore the relationship between medical history and second‐wave feminism and argue that 1970s feminists made the idea of the nineteenth century and its medical system work for their political cause. Not only did many of them find in that century the origin point of their own conflict with the medical profession, they also claimed that the medical care they received was founded on the form and methodologies of medical knowledge that arose in the 1800s. Moreover, I contend that the importance of the nineteenth century to many feminist scholars was related to second‐wave feminism's reassertion of the physical body in the construction of personal identity and its related privileging of embodied, experiential knowledge over objective or disembodied forms of expertise.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
