Woman who lived as a man for 18 months takes her own life

(This Recording Is Not Me Or Anyone I Know In Person. I Just Found This Very Instersting & Helpful)

[media=https://voca.ro/1QiBxMkCx6BM]

Norah Vincent was an American writer and she decided to live as a man for 18 months, uncovering the challenges men face daily. She did in order to get inspired for a book she was writing"Self-Made Man," published in 2006, about the 18 months she spent disguised as "Ned." Through her experiment, she exposed the complexities of masculinity, from societal pressures to emotional struggles.

After this experiment, she checked herself into a mental institution because of the experiences she lived and the damage it caused her. 15 years later, she decided committing assisted suicide in Switzerland.

A 53 year old man's one star review...

@NativePortlander1970 This is also a cool review! I think the speaker in that vocoroo clip makes essentially the same mistake. Real healthy friendships and communities (of any gender) take years and years to build, you can't just totally switch up your social life for a year and a half, starting from zero, only hang out with lonely, lost men and then assume that you had a representative experience.
