Amazingly explained, thank you for explaining concept I’ve always known but never fully understood until now.

Especially because it was also only studied based on men so 50% of the population wasn’t even represented by that line because…medical misogyny.

Nan 🌎 🇺🇸 💙 :
Along this theme - is it also true that “normal range” decided for many/most lab tests were decided decades ago, using trials that didn’t even include females?

Yes, yes,yes. can we redraw what strokes look like so those of us who are having a stroke aren't sent home from the ER telling us we are having an anxiety attack. Many of our medical maps are off by a lot

You just explained the Mercator map to me in a way that I never understood. I knew the sizes of countries were off “because the earth is round” but I never understood that it was because that map was made to help you get across the world

Plus- placement of electrodes and variance in individual anatomy really can obfuscate what an ecg shows.

Squishybikergamer :
but providers are not given the time to actually form a whole picture about an individual and thus so many people get lumped in somewhere rather than individual conditions controlled

Showing Africa in its TRUE SIZE is about more than a map—it’s about changing the mindset. It changes how we see ourselves, how the world sees us, and how confidently we claim our place in the world. So much is at stake. Africa is a continent of immense land, people, resources and potential. 🇿🇦🌍 Now it’s time for the world to recognize Africa’s rightful place—not through charity, but through equal representation. Africa deserves a PERMANENT SEAT on the UN Security Council. 🌍
