  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

A tweet from Davey Maher Fitness (@David_Maher) reads:  

“If men lost 20% of their skeleton by 50, there’d be billion-dollar task forces overnight.  

But when women’s bones crumble after menopause?  

It’s just called ‘aging.’ No scans. No BHRT. No urgency.  

Just Mickey Mouse bloodwork & ‘take your calcium, honey’ — & pray you don’t snap a hip.  

This is medical neglect.  

Demand better.”

A comment below by @drmaryclaire says:  

“This post about osteoporosis and bone loss — and the differences between females and males — triggered me in my tracks.  

Agree or disagree with the methodology, what struck me most was this:  

A non-physician male recognizing and calling out the massive discrepancy in how we talk about, study, and treat bone loss in women.  

This is the kind of awareness and conversation we need more of.  

Because women deserve better.”

While that's a nice effort, the post remains inaccessible, and the only remedy is for OP to fix their post (easiest remedy: link to source). To explain, opening every inaccessible post to maybe find a detached, buried comment of unclear reliability demands inequitably more of the disabled user than everyone else, so it isn’t a remedy.
