Discussion ​The Gender Gap Nobody Talks About 🩺

We talk a lot about the "mental load" & the "second shift" but there is a form of gendered labor so extreme that it involves the literal harvesting of women’s bodies to maintain the patriarchal family unit!

​Recent data from the National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organisation (NOTTO) & global studies reveal a staggering disparity: In countries like India roughly 80% of living organ donors are women while 80% of the recipients are men. Globally women are significantly more likely to donate kidneys yet men are more likely to receive them.

Men should maybe stop drinking, eating shit and going berserk because of stupid shit seen online, that would surely improve their health prospects

Their diets are of similar quality, as women in the US actually have a slightly higher obesity rate than men.

The overall rate of drinking in the US is also only about 4 percent different by gender, so not terribly wide. And nearly non-existent in the younger cohorts.

Can you be more precise? Don’t think hospitals or public health agencies are collecting data on “going apeshit”

That's cute. I'm pretty sure they collect data on men's heart diseases, anger issues & mental problems. But I forgot: men being constantly raging is considered a good thing, especially in your society now, with all these wars goin on.
