The óther’ Gender Gaps

There has been a lot of talk lately about the gender pay gap, but not much about all the other 'gender gaps'.

For instance, did you know that office air conditioning is set to be comfortable for a thirty five year old man in a suit and tie? Interesting considering that, on average, they spend much less time in the office.

Or that up until 2022 all crash test dummies were men? So car manufacturers totally ignored the affects of a crash on the female form.

Medical research? Unless research is specifically about a female issue, all other general medical research is largely conducted on men. Coronary heart disease research for example is directed mainly at men and yet women's symptoms are very different. As a result the morbidity and mortality in women is actually higher.

No matter where you look, consideration of how things affect women seems to come second. The patriarchy is alive and well. Join in the push to a better and more balanced future. Visit eraofoestrogen.com to see what you can do.
