This article explores the position of women with problems of drug abuse in Western and Greek research literature on addiction. We review a number of studies from the western and Greek addiction research literature in order to examine the claims of critical-feminist and postmodern researchers that addiction research refers mainly to males, whereas addiction is described as a male problem. Our review supports the above claim and illustrates how the experience of women with drug misuse is ignored or even distorted in Greece and in other western countries. We also discuss briefly the current state of the addiction literature towards women’s drug misuse. We conclude that even though a remarkable progress has been made in the field, Ettorre’s oldest view (1992) that research in the field of addiction undermines the significance of substance use by women as a social group, if not actively hiding it, remains relevant.
