Jürgen Hubert<p>Okay, since this came up let me reiterate what the point of the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ManOrBear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ManOrBear</span></a> debate was.</p><p>When a lot of women said that they preferred the bear, men should _not_ interpret this as an "attack" on them personally, or men in general.</p><p>Instead, it simply reflects the fact that women have to evaluate their personal safety in entirely different ways than men. Random male strangers are, statistically speaking, far more dangerous to women than random female strangers are to men. Yes, most men are perfectly safe, but there are enough exceptions that women cannot pretend that they are not out there.</p><p>In other words, women have different life experiences than men when it comes to personal safety. (Well, duh!)</p><p>And the _sensible_ thing for us men would be to accept that having life experiences that differ from our own does not make them invalid.</p><p>Instead of, you know, treating statements about these experiences as "sexism against men" or a personal attack ("I am owed the benefit of the doubt, and how dare they suggest otherwise!").</p><p>If you get upset about this, then you should direct your ire against the men who cause these safety issues in the first place, instead of the women who have to deal with them.</p><p>&lt;/rant&gt;<br><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/feminism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>feminism</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/sexism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sexism</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodon.social/@warandpeas/114347592227174929" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.social/@warandpeas/11</span><span class="invisible">4347592227174929</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History April 12, 1963: Mexican journalist and human rights activist, Lydia Cacho, was born on this day. She has reported extensively on violence and sexual abuse against women in Mexico. In 2006, she reported on the hundreds of female homicides in Ciudad Juárez. That same year, a tape emerged of a conversation between businessman Kamel Nacif Borge and the governor of Puebla, in which they conspired to have her beaten and raped for her reporting.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/rape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rape</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/femicide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>femicide</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mexico" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mexico</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lydiacacho" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lydiacacho</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sexism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sexism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/feminism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>feminism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/humanrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>humanrights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sexism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sexism</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Covid is no worse than the flu?</p><p>I know, I have now led dozens of posts over the past few years with this sarcastic question. But now, with the pandemic officially declared over by the politicians and the majority of the public behaving as though Covid19 is no longer a threat, it seems particularly apropos in light of the reasons for declaring the pandemic over: to get people back to work and back to consuming. Yet, as the data from this study show, Long Covid has had an enormous negative impact on the income and quality of life for millions of Americans, particularly the poor and working class, and particularly for African Americans and women.</p><p>*Nearly 1 in 7 working-age adults in the U.S. had experienced Long Covid by the end of 2023<br>*Socially disadvantaged adults were 152% more likely to suffer from Long Covid<br>*Groups with higher risk for Long Covid include being Black, LGBTQ, Hispanic, Female, or low income<br>*In 2022, people with Long Covid lost $211 billion in wages<br>*In 2023, people with Long Covid lost $218 billion in wages</p><p>One reason for the disproportionate effect of Long Covid on marginalized communities, particularly BIPOC and poor people, is that these groups suffer disproportionately from chronically elevated levels of the stress hormone, Cortisol, due to the stress caused by racism, sexism, homophobia, and poverty. Elevated Cortisol levels are also associated with increased risk of heart disease, hypertension, and diabetes, as well as impaired immune function.</p><p>For a really good documentary on the Social Determinants of Health and the relationship between racism and poverty on stress/cortisol levels and negative health outcomes, please see the Unnatural Causes video series</p><p><a href="https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/studies-1-7-us-working-age-adults-report-long-covid-heaviest-burden-poor" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/studie</span><span class="invisible">s-1-7-us-working-age-adults-report-long-covid-heaviest-burden-poor</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/covid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>covid</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/COVID19" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>COVID19</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/longcovid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>longcovid</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/publichealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>publichealth</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pandemic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pandemic</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wages</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>racism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poverty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poverty</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/socialdeterminantsofhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>socialdeterminantsofhealth</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lgbtq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lgbtq</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sexism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sexism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/homophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homophobia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cortisol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cortisol</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackMastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackMastadon</span></a></p>
