Male's priviledge huh, that's new
Ah well welcome to a man's world, It's going to be really fun for you😂
Unironically yes. As a male STEM student, I had a much easier time finding a study group, I didn’t feel singled out and isolated in my classes, and people took the things I said seriously.
It’s like magic when I go to the doctor - the second they find out a uterus, it’s like their whole body language changes.
My wife had a doctor literally walk out of the room when she mentioned in addition to the abdominal pain she was having post-c-section she also had had a period non stop for 3 months straight. Y'know because she mentioned her period
I have epilepsy. Controlled, but I had a series of seizures several years ago.
They basically were like “seizures happen sometimes” and just sent me on my way. I have no idea why, if they’ll return, if I’m supposed to just keep taking this medication for the rest of my life. The neurologist I saw afterwards didn’t give a rats ass.
I passed a kidney stone without help once - I went to the Urgent Care and the doctor argued with me about where I would be hurting. I was hurting in the wrong place, so it couldn’t have been a kidney stone.
It was much easier when I had a husband there to repeat everything I said.
