Well if the group was what anti-Mrms say it is then I certainly wouldn’t be here.
So I think we are on the right track 😃
Yeah definitely
I love when feminists tell me that the MRM hates women and don’t stand for anything other then hating women and then accuse me of knowing nothing about feminism... she stopped responding to me but I did get downvoted a bit xD
Haha
Pretty sure I used to be a better Feminist then most of those keyboard warriors anyway, back when I volunteered at Zonta, I helped make the birthing kits they would send over to 3rd world countries, something you don’t hear much about anymore because they get so enveloped in the dumb shit these days
birthing kits?
Isn't it funny how that is? So many people believe the MRM hates women, but they will jump down your throat at the implication that perhaps they hate men
Yeah. Sounds like you actually tackled real issues instead of being worried about men opening their legs not to crush their manlihoods
Well I looked into Zonta lately and they are just as feminist as the rest of them, took me a while to find the page for that program, the birthing kits where basically blankets, antibiotics, antiseptics and a few other things like formula, stuff like that, it was a while ago now.
Interesting. My mother went back to university to train as a midwife. I'm always somewhat interested in medicine and public health
She's had a horrible time of doing the course though. It truly is the definition of a toxic environment. But that's really a different story
That's not good to hear, is it any better now
It's not great but it's not a bad as it was. She ended up starting two different investigations into two different hospitals and training going on.
She's probably one of the oldest people training in the country, and my Dad has helped a lot by going to meetings and seeing the bulshit they've pullled
Glad to hear there is action being taken
It seems to be a systemic thing though. One hospital is bad luck, two is a pattern. My ex GF was also training to be a midwife but quit because of the bullying and when there was a national story a few months back about a major incident in a london hospital that happened due to miscommunication I would say it's leaning towards a systemic issue
These investigations should hopefully help put a dent in the issue though
Hopefully, but this is only individual hospitals. It's not made it to a national consciousness yet. It's made harder given the demographic. Women working with young mothers and babies. How could they ever be mean /s
Well spending time in hospitals you could see it wasn’t good, the nurses get really bitchy with each other with head nurse usually being the worst
There seems to be a lot of corruption in caretaking in general, there's a lot of elder abuse in old folks' homes as well
Did I ever tell you about the time where the nurses gave me dirty looks when I cleaned my dads balls for him because no one was cleaning him... also bringing him clean undies every week gets expensive because no one would help him wipe his bum
No. That's fucked up
That's awful
I get that it's a stressful job, it probably has some negative mental impacts, but that's not okay
I'm in favor of caretakers and police getting regular mental evaluations
Well once when I wasn’t there he tried to wipe himself and burst his stitches and got blood and lymph fluid all over the floor, was sitting the buzzing for the nurses for about 15 minutes because an angry nurse came in to yell at him for buzzing so much
Holy hell, I think I'd much rather die before I ever had to be put in one of those places
I am a full time caretaker now, it’s fun how little support I get
That's fucking disgusting. Surely that warrants being reported. Negligence leading to complications and harm. Not to mention psychological stress
My dad talked to the solicitor and they said they didn’t want the case
There is a lot more shit that hospital did that they should be sued for, but it’s a bit complicated
Annoying but I understand.
Without money things are difficult to fix or hold people accountable
Also I think he is a bit done with courts on top of everything else xD
Fair.
Also child support was still happening when this was all happening xD
Pretty difficult to fight a court case while also having to pay child support
For context, my mum has kicked me out of home, my dad was in hospital and couldn’t pay it, so I payed for the child support that was meant to me for raising me... the child
System is fucked
