Morning reflections

I find that often I’m quite angry about what happens to women, and it feels like we have gone backwards in society.

1. Medical research is still mostly based data collected about men’s bodies. Drug dosing and medical equipment is still mostly created for men and their bodies.

2. AI algorithms are often based on data that comes from men. This could mean that products are programmed, and designed for men without considering the other half of the species, having more long-term impact on progress, health, and life outcomes.

3. Why isn’t there an even split of stories about women from history? Why weren’t women allowed to do certain things?

4. Why, now that in most Western cultures, women have a lot more opportunities, are there still a lack of opportunities at certain levels of an organisation?

5. When will there be a big shift in how we think about these factors?
