The National Science Foundation, the federal agency that oversees the U.S. Antarctic Program, published a report in 2022 in which 59% of women said they’d experienced harassment or assault while on the ice, and 72% of women said such behavior was a problem in Antarctica.
But the problem goes beyond the harassment, The Associated Press found. In reviewing court records and internal communications, and in interviews with more than a dozen current and former employees, the AP uncovered a pattern of women who said their claims of harassment or assault were minimized by their employers, often leading to them or others being put in further danger.
what should women do to protect themselves?
If only there were lots of non-lethal things that would stop an attacker. Nope. People can only protect themselves with guns and absolutely nothing else in the world.
you really are more upset and mad that guns exist. and not the fact that humans have killing ingrained in their nature?
Not really interested in personal attacks, sorry. If that’s what you’re resorting to now, we can end this here and I can block you.
lol sure. make your echo chamber smaller. when you over specialize you breed in weakness. there is always more than one way to look at a scenario and your gut jump to block means you don’t value differing opinions…and thats sad
Blocked it is.
nothing of value was lost?
