But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun. 167184974638

The US healthcare system is not merely in disarray, it is actively and purposely stacked against the actual user of healthcare. Seriously. I have been to these conferences, I've been in these boardrooms. They actively scheme how to better deny and delay providing care. 0178
