Except you can’t show a topless woman on TV - and you can’t defibrillate a woman in a bra. So victims of heart attacks on TV are *always* male. Did you know that a woman having a heart attack is more likely to have back or jaw pain than chest or left arm pain? I didn’t - because I’ve never seen a woman having a heart attack. I’ve been trained in CPR and Advanced First Aid by the Red Cross over 15 times in my life, the videos and booklets always have a guy and say the same thing about clutching his chest and/or bicep.

And people laugh when I tell them women are still invisible in this world.

My mom worked for 25 years as an ER nurse and is convinced that a lot of women die simply because folks only know heart attack symptoms that occur in males.

Society thinks our bodies are so scandalous that it’s better to put our lives at risk than to show us how to stay safe

In nursing school, I’ve noticed a gradual shift away in the rhetoric from women’s symptoms are “abnormal”, which is great because how is something “abnormal” if nearly half of the MI population experiences those symptoms?

My friends’ mom died of a heart attack. No one knew the signs, and when she collapsed, her family had to perform CPR on her until the ambulance showed up.

people are boycotting the Kraft commercials for the “Zesty” salad topping because it features a topless man in compromising situations.

people are boycotting it because it sexualizes a man. 

people are boycotting a commercial that features one of the oldest marketing strategies because this time it’s a man being exploited.
