This isn’t just accidental. It’s part of a long history of epistemic injustice and ignorance, where certain groups’ knowledge, body and experience are systematically devalued. We’re digging into that tomorrow through the lens of endometriosis, reproductive bias, and the politics of ignorance.

Men are often failed by health systems because of toxic masculinity — they’re discouraged from seeking help. But women are failed when they do seek help. Being “in the system” doesn’t help if the system doesn’t listen or lacks the science because women’s bodies haven’t been taken seriously.

Important questions — thank you for asking! Yes, women often live longer, but living longer doesn’t mean living better. The phrase “women live sicker” captures the brutal truth: women’s health concerns are dismissed, misdiagnosed, and under-researched for decades.

That is a great questions and points to issue related to feminism and toxic masculinity. The quick answer is that men die quicker and women live sicker. Women experience more neglect in the health care systems, men do not go. Social, biological, behavioral factors intersect in complex ways.
