That often puts me at odds with folks in terms of opinions but I can back it all up via research and what's written in the manuals which often have caveats re use and application that people miss.

Theres not a lot 1 can do abt this either. There are SOME divisions but not as many as one might like to think & there are an infinite number of fuzzy boundaries ie., as in vaccinations. This is a highly fluid & often volatile life stage to navigate married or single & 2/

things are muddy as hell (this is an area I've researched tracked, and personally experienced as part of that natural child birth community). Women are isolated by society and thats a problem on both the right and the left. Women are vilified & looked down on when they do 3/

have kids, and are pilloried if they stay home, go to work, if they breastfeed, for how long or not and are essentially cut off from an elder community that might help them navigate the enormous shift in their lives not to mention having to put up with petulant manbaby 4/

3) “Mr. McGowan and Ms. Campbell, both 34, say they tried to protect their colleagues against political meddling from WH and HHS but was largely stifled by the Trump administration.

4) “The White House insisted on reviewing — and often softening — the C.D.C.’s closely guarded coronavirus guidance documents, the most prominent public expression of its latest research and scientific consensus on the spread of the virus.”

5) “The documents were vetted not only by the White House’s coronavirus task force but by what felt to the agency’s employees like an endless loop of political appointees across Washington.
Mr. McGowan recalled a White House fixated on the economic implications of public health.
