Racism.

That assumes it is only a male/female issue, and not a life/death issue.

Hence my remark to @Civil Discourse that abortion is a complex ethical subject and this is not strictly the thread in which to discuss it.

By time out I was referring to half an hour or so to cool down or dry out - some women end up dripping with sweat.

Then perhaps you should have made yourself clearer.

You are, I suppose also a woman of mature years, so you will have some idea of what it is like unless you opted for HRT.

I am. Just ask anybody here. I do. I did not.

You might also know of women who have really serious dysmenorrhea.

I do not.

However, I do not see campaigners outside pharmacists calling for for free sanitary protection for women.

I do not see women campaigning outside pharmacies calling for free sanitary protection, let alone men. Perhaps that is a European thing.

BTW - whether it is "hot flushes" or "hot flashes" is a matter of geography.

So, it may be a hourse of a different colour?

It seems to be the sole topic with regard to women's issues.

Abortion is not a "women's issue" since it doesn't affect women exclusively. It also affects fathers and unborn children.

Ah, so you decided to dial back your terribly overgeneralized claim?

Firstly you need to define "many" as you have used it, and also provide some evidence in support of that allegation.

I wouldn't have introduced the subject, but I assumed that was what you were referring to.

I know of no such campaigns. Hence my remark "You are free to correct me of course."

Well, consider your harebrained examples corrected then.

You need to explain what you mean by "need" and provide a definition for "provide" as you're using it before I can comply.

Like you cood see the difference

Seriously? That's more than a little outdated having been made obsolete by this research (also pdf)

I can find nothing to argue with in the report itself, but the failure to present the fourth citation in the approved format is a little disappointing.

Typical. Can't disagree with the content you decide to gripe about the format.

Personally, I wished they had expanded on the second point which the accompanying diagram seems to muddle rather than clarify.

Only time I heard of a hot flush was in a poker game.
