[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gotcha. We want women to have more babies, but it’s now illegal to research fertility, pregnancy outcomes, post partum issues, etc, etc. because DEI. Makes perfect sense.

I too want a definition of DEI. It’s like “woke”— it means everything you disagree with and nothing substantive. [/quote]

Yup, DEI as I have seen it wasn't about having unqualified women and brown people and poor people succeed in life.  It was about making sure that qualified women and brown and poor people could succeed in life without discrimination or undue barriers.  Hard to do if you can't talk about scientifically evident differences in health.[/quote]

Men, as well as many of the other genders, can give birth to babies too, you know.   That is a scientific fact.

Science is real, PP.  [/quote]

Oh the trans bogeyman that is hurting your life in so many ways. Keep talking about that when your female loved one has ovarian cancer, and the NIH grants studying women have been canceled because..DEI. [/quote]

Let me ask you this, PP:

How is getting rid of DEI affecting you personally?

Seriously:  why do you care? [/quote]

Because it hurts me to see this administration wreaking havoc on our nation's public health, foreign policy and competitive edge in the name of DEI.  
Because I care about women and people of color and know that there is a long history of people getting denied opportunities they because of discrimination.
Because I know that women have different health issues from men and that different ethnicities are more affected by certain diseases.
