Potsdamer Tanztage: Die gereizte Frau | Miriam Yung Min Stein (Berlin)

In the organizer's words:

Periods are political - but so is their absence. When Miriam Stein is surprised by hot flushes, insomnia and other unpleasant harbingers of the menopause, she re-examines the position assigned to her by patriarchal society. Slightly irritated, she realizes that the so-called menopause is the last taboo in women's health. Miriam Stein does away with old prejudices and takes the topic out of the social shadows. In The Irritated Woman, she combines personal experience with feminist social criticism in an entertaining and clever way. Based on common menopausal symptoms and the misogynistic clichés and assertions associated with them, she rewrites the story of female ageing. An important read for every woman who wants to age in a self-determined way. Miriam Yung Min Stein is a journalist and author and lives with her family in Berlin. She was born in South Korea in 1977 and grew up in a German family as an adopted child. She has worked in theater with Christoph Schlingensief and Rimini Protokoll and is a distinguished German cultural journalist.
