"i fully know what you mean! but! i did also think "Oscar Wilde published The Picture of Dorian Gray 133 years ago as of 2 months from now, and people still act like being gay was invented by the Rocky Horror Show in 1973" and now i cannot stop laughing making more gay history comparisons"

"But honestly! Renowned French poet Théophile de Viau wrote the poetic ode to King James titled "The Duke of Buckingham," containing the immortal lines "One man f***s Monsieur le Grand de Bellegarde / Another f***s the Comte de Tonnerre / And it is well known that the King of England / F***s the Duke of Buckingham" exactly 400 years ago and people still act like being gay was invented by Oscar Wilde in 1890"

CPR manikins typically lack breasts, which may contribute to women being less likely to receive bystander CPR during cardiac arrest. Research indicates that bystanders are more likely to perform CPR on men than women, and this disparity might be influenced by the lack of breasts on most training manikins, potentially leading to hesitation or discomfort among bystanders. While anatomical differences don't affect the CPR technique itself, the visual representation in training could impact whether someone attempts CPR.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Gender Disparity in CPR:
Studies show women are less likely to receive bystander CPR compared to men.

CPR Manikins and Gender:
A significant portion of CPR training manikins (around 95%) are flat-chested, lacking the representation of female anatomy.

Potential Impact:
This lack of representation could lead to hesitation or discomfort among bystanders when performing CPR on women, potentially due to fear of inappropriate touching or s*xual assault.

Need for More Realistic Manikins:
Using CPR manikins that accurately represent both male and female anatomy could help normalize CPR on women and potentially increase the likelihood of bystander intervention.

CPR Technique is the Same:
It's important to remember that the core CPR technique remains the same regardless of the person's s*x.
