Women's Safety: The Mental Load of Being a Woman
A 60-minute session on the quiet, everyday work of staying safe: the “reached home” text, the outfit changed for the route, the smile at a stranger who won't stop talking. Who carries that load, who never notices it, and what does it cost? Twelve independent cards; open three or four.
How we do this
Be respectfulDisagree with the point, never the person.
Raise your hand to speakSo nobody has to talk over anybody.
Keep it shortSay the thing, then let the next person in.
Discussion is encouragedReply to each other, not just to the question.
Tangents are allowedIf the room follows it, it is the discussion.
This is a safe spaceWhat is said here stays in the room.
