3. Every crisis affect women disproportionately

And they spend all their time just trying to survive, make a living, keep a roof over their heads, feed their children, pay their bills, provide nutritious food, all the time fending off unreasonable arseholes who just want to be free of, 'the bitchs demands'.

I luv you to bits, kiddo, but this is an academic response to a very real and painful problem.
