Because women are often viewed as “sensitive,” it’s socially acceptable for them to express their feelings, like sadness or fear. But men, who are seen as strong and fearless, are not encouraged to outwardly express their emotions. These cultural norms and gender stereotypes have been circulating for generations, and they can be toxic, especially for males. Men who express their emotions are often seen as weak. Because of that, many men neglect to show their emotions because they’re afraid of the repercussions.]]> 2023-02-16 22:26:37 UTC https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485633049 skylarmboe10 https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485636401 For too many years, women with ADHD have been routinely dismissed, disregarded, and misdiagnosed when they pursue evaluations and diagnoses for impairments like distractibility, executive dysfunction, and emotional dysregulation. Partially to blame is clinical and research bias that has long centered and overvalued male presentations of ADHD. When women present non-conforming symptoms of ADHD which we know is a highly impairing and highly stigmatized disorder in females those symptoms are often not recognized or treated properly, with serious consequences. ]]> 2023-02-16 22:31:50 UTC https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485636401 skylarmboe10 https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485641292 One bias many of us might struggle to accept or care to admit to let alone talk about is pretty privilege. The term 'pretty privilege' has been floating around for a while now, but what actually is it, and why is its existence debated by some? There are some universal commonalities amongst those who experience 'pretty privilege'.

They also talk about how they see white privilege as an invisible package of unearned assets that they can count on cashing in each day, but about which they was "meant" to remain oblivious. "White privilege is like an invisible weightless knapsack of special provisions, assurances, tools, maps, guides, codebooks, passports, visas, clothes, compass, emergency gear, and blank checks." ]]> 2023-02-17 02:01:08 UTC https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485793158 skylarmboe10 https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485830965 Lizzo not only wanted to share her moment with herself she also wanted to share the big moment with several other people, namely 17 female activists spearheading important causes that deserved to be highlighted. Lizzo knows it's about damn time to recognize the women who are fighting for change.]]> 2023-02-17 02:49:01 UTC https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2485830965 skylarmboe10 https://padlet.com/skylarmboe10/dlminqx5kbobofvv/wish/2491350371 Eliminating the wage gap would provide much needed income to Black women whose wages keep their households.

Since then, other long-acting, reversible contraceptives (LARCs) have been developed for women, and women now have a total of 11 methods to choose from, including barrier methods, hormonal methods, and LARCs. In contrast, men only have 2 options male condom and vasectomy and neither are hormonal methods or LARCs.
