Women were allowed to go to medical school in the Victorian area? I thought they were all being crushed to death by corsets and having their uteruses removed?

Amazing what women can accomplish with medically induced orgasms to treat female hysteria.

Low-key jealous

So fun fact - the clothes were made to look like the proportions were wild and therefore historical corsets were not as crazy tight as we would assume.

Can confirm. I’ve made and worn historically accurate Victorian corsets for a few decades. They’re actually quite comfortable, supportive, and great for back pain.
The fainting thing is a myth. You can breathe fine and even touch your toes easily.
Only a few people were doing extreme tight lacing for clout – basically the equivalent of the Kardashians – but since photography was expensive and the media was like it is now, those were the ones we heard about most. Regular women weren’t doing that.

Hazing at that school was out of control.

It's all fun and games until the joke leads to Edna's eating disorder.

One of those students really worked herself to the bone

It's not great. But residency is where the villain arc begins.
