“In the image of God he created him; male and female.” Excerpted from Genesis 1:27 (NASB).
My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.
Australian doctors are calling for people to stop using terms named after men, to describe body parts - such as Adam's apple and Achilles heel.
For example, Dr. Kristin Small, teaches students to phase out irrelevant and misogynistic medical language.
Dr. Small said, “I think we have a personal choice to decolonize our language and these historical terms will fade out.”
Dr. Small also said she makes sure her students still know eponyms for exam purposes, but she objects to the fact that women are not represented in most of the 700 body parts that are named after people.
Wow!
