i thought you guys would find this thread i wrote interesting

This is not just feminist BS. A LOT of medical conditions are studied more in men. I have read multiple recherche papers on everything from Autism to heart disease where they only studied men for some reason but almost none when they only studied women, with the exception of diseases that only women can get. So basically if you are a women and you share the same problem as a man the data is inherently skewed. 

A lot of medical conditions are also studied mostly on WHITE men which makes it even more exclusive category. Psychology research mostly done on Western students as well which are a very specific and very different category of people from everyone else.

So we have most of our research which affects the well-being of all of us done mostly on White Western males with higher education. Just think about it.
