@MaryFrancisWGST I agree with this statement, I remember when I was of the age to have this conversation with my parents we never got around to sitting down and discussing it. eventually became implied that I knew what was going on through school. #WGST106
I agree with gender inclusion/creating safe spaces for oppressed individuals, I feel the military does not need to create these environments. The military should strive for a ruthless group of individuals. Their goal is not be be the safe space, its to protect the safe space #USA
Military culture has been a restrictive, oppressive, and sometimes dangerous place for the LGBTQ community, and the culture is often hyper masculine. However, 2 or 3% of the U.S. veterans identify as gay or lesbian(Gates, 2003). #WGST106
@GabyGut44 Title IX's consistency in failing to side with the survivors goes to show the strides universities need to make in order to improve the safety of their students.
@Arshisaxena2000 It's tragic to see these statistics that ring true in todays society, something must truly be done about this the underpaid and underrepresented women in STEM, great job building a thread to spread awareness.
According to Carol Tully domestic abuse is defined as verbal, physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, social, or spiritual abuse. Even with such a clear definition The issue of identifying abuse in LGBTQ+ relationships is not only an outside problem but also an internal one.
@GabyGut44 Personally I feel the question "were you under the influence" is a valid question, the question is not aimed to blame the victim but to build a case against the abuser. It is used to gather details about the situation while the "what were you wearing" question is just irrelevant.
@maanow@JoshS27675980 I too did a little research on this topic and found it interesting how the wage cap can be linked to childhood test scores in a certain field.
@an_wgst Firstly, I believe we must reduce all plastic waste in American households. Second is donating to organization that encourage the rebuilding of ecosystems. And Lastly, we must educate others about how serious this issue truly is. #WGST106#savetheplanet
@briannascu It is absolutely unbelievable that this is an issue that people of color face, the idea of a higher mortality rate while giving birth just because one may have a darker complexion than someone else is horrifying. #WGST106
