A few weeks ago, I had a doctor's appointment that, to summarize, did not go well. Sparing you the gory details, I will simply say that the procedure caused excruciating pain, aided only by a single 800mg ibuprofen. I cried the whole way home from Salt Lake City, and after sharing my tale of woe and sadness with multiple female friends, I don't think I stand alone.

I admit that some days, I am tempted to tune out Europe’s political dramas. We already have more than enough issues to worry about here in the United States (with even more, it seems, on the way), from political polarization to economic pressures to rising egg prices and back again. However, as tempting as it sounds, ignoring Europe’s far-right surge could backfire, as the political upheaval across the pond often seeps into our debates, policies, and daily lives. The far-right resurgence is not only Europe’s problem, unfortunately. It is a global issue, and overlooking it would be a mistake.

Reflecting on 2024, I keep coming back to one thing: this has been a year marked by gender gaps. And not just in one area but across several facets of our society: religion, politics, education, and beyond. It seems like every significant aspect of life is being reshaped by these growing divides, sparking various questions. Are women doing "too much" or "too little"? Are women having too few children? Are too many women pursuing careers? Are too many women voting blue? The question isn't really about what women are doing, however. It's about why we're seeing such distinct differences between men and women in how they're engaging with the world. And what does that mean for us moving forward?

Rape culture is a term familiar to the majority of us in the United States. Whether we're able to give a formal definition of "rape culture" or not, I would feel comfortable assuming that it's something that the general population would be able to understand. For most people, a sexual assault accusation or case is enough for them to lose their jobs or have other or additional serious consequences. Why is this not the case for politicians?

On three occasions recently, I was asked to share my “political pet peeve” or “political hot take,” here it is: today, it’s embarrassing for someone to be apathetic about the world around them. To be clear, I’m not saying that anyone who doesn’t have an obsessive relationship with reading the news is politically apathetic. However, I am saying that someone who doesn’t know who the current sitting President of the United States is apathetic.
