YouTube video by Jenn Simmons, MD discussing societal and environmental contributors to women's health problems; this chunk emphasizes that chronic stress—driven by caregiving burdens, single parenthood, and environmental exposures—is a primary driver making women disproportionately susceptible to disease. The speaker frames women as under systemic 'attack' and links reproductive and nurturing roles to broader societal consequences.

Chapters

That's why I think women are so subject to all these different diseases more than men. There are a lot of women out there, unfortunately, whether they're single mothers by choice or not, or just single in general, that are taking on all these things all the time. And then you combine that with all the environmental things that we've been talking about, and you see stress just rise to the top, like it is a huge driver. That's why I think women are so subject to all these different diseases more than men. Women are under attack. And again, my pessimistic viewpoint on this is that women are under attack for a reason. Because if you don't want more people, who do you go after? You go after the women. Like, women are the fertile source, the nurturing source for our whole society. And, like, if you don't have that, like, you don't have a society at all.
