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.

    quick with the twisting of the knife. “ill wait” idk who hurt you. but you should probably talk to someone you can confide in. Guns are not going anywhere in your lifetime l, keep denying it and raging at it till the bitter end and then when you die and i die. guns will still be here. ill wait while you figure this out?
