@golgaloth I'm not in the medical field, I'm in/was until recently in the tech sector. I was massively inspired by star trek, especially TOS: I wanted to be a female Spock.
What hooked this 11 year old girl was there was no (apparent to me) racism which had such an effect on me that I started to question my parents who just accepted the status quo as if racism could never be changed. Likewise when I learned about and shared my knowledge of the patriarchy.
