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.
Lol and people want to talk about Mars missions.
We are so fucked.
Only possible if you do an all female mission imo.
All male mission -> they kill each other
Mixed mission -> they kill the women and probably themselves after
Women also suffer fewer negative effects from prolonged exposure to microgravity
How much exactly are those ‘fewer’ negative effects. Micro Gravity is but a tiny obstacle to the forces we need to overcome in terms of long distance space travel. I’d be more concerned with cosmic rays, waves, and radiation just sweeping by and lethal dosing everyone without warning.
Visual impairment mostly (visual impairment intracranial pressure syndrome). Severe cases have only been observed in men
Never heard of this, do you have a source?
Buckingham was hired by PAE. Amentum didn’t respond to questions from the AP. Leidos Senior Vice President Melissa Lee Dueñas said it conducts background checks on all its employees.
“Our stance on sexual harassment or assault couldn’t be more clear: we have zero tolerance for such behavior,” Dueñas said in an email. “Each case is thoroughly investigated.”
Translates to 1) We thoroughly investigate and hire sexual predators and 2) We say this b.s. to protect our jobs, actually we have zero tolerance for those who complain about sexual harassment.
The report made it clear that those in charge enable sexual predators.
One of them carried a hammer held by her bra. Wild. The person in charge of this place should be facing criminal charges.
Yeah, as a woman, I’d be real hesitant about taking a job out there, or any place thats more wild-west in nature (very few people and very lax regulation of any laws) and I’d sure as hell take gun tactical training before going, and always have a firearm on me.
But that narrative doesn’t support the anti gun ideology. they want everyone disarmed so the strong can once again shuffle the weak in any direction they choose. it makes them so mad that they have to think twice about sexual assault or else they get blown away. its like a condom, those convincing you that you don’t need one, means you really really need one.
edit: so mad 😎

They get mad when reality disagrees with them. Big mad. As in to say most of the time
Who’s mad again? Lol
the down voters obvi~
Not the ranter in favor of dead children tho
that escalated quickly. 0-100 who said anything about dead children?
Ah yes, the idea that mass shootings are aided by guns is just unthinkable
god forbid anyone uses any other means to kill someone though. focus on the guns. focus on the guns.

Here to derail any meaningful conversation on any topic and make it all about his pet political issue, he’ll topple you with his signature move, The Forum Slide, where in one post he’ll turn any discussion into a shit-flinging flame war where everyone will forget what they were originally talking about in the first place!

She specifically said “training”, which on its own immediately goes against whatever insane ideology you’re selling.
protection of ones own safety is insane? who is responsible then for my safety? and how should i go about protecting myself? and since my wife carries. you think i should deny her a firearm? because of school shootings?
