One day early in my career I realized everyone on my 5-person team had gone golfing without me, the only woman. They never asked, but I'd been playing since I was a kid.

NIH funding for disease research does not match disease burden. Diseases which affect mainly women (anxiety, headaches, endometriosis, ME/CFS) receive less funding while those affecting mainly men (HIV/AIDS, substance misuse) get more funding. @minikerri

Today, we had to let go my best little friend. She was with me through some very good times and some very bad times. 7 years was not enough but she'll always be the goodest girl.

What fresh hell is this? As someone who firmly believes in evolution and evolved psychological functioning, this is why "evolutionary psychology" is so alienating for women.
