About this episode
Season 04 : British Isles
Episode 04 : Magdalene Laundries : Ireland
Historically, it’s never been easy to be a woman. Even today in fact, depending on what part of the world you live in it can be excruciatingly difficult to live a life as a member of the fairer sex. But while things like the constant threat of sexual harassment or not having access to medical treatments are a sad reality in the modern day, that’s arguably nothing compared to what the women of Ireland had to go through between the 18th and 20th centuries. Most people know about the oppression suffered by women in the past and applaud the progress made since then. Sometimes though, the situation was even worse than you’ve been told.
