Clinton, Bloomberg push for data to help women

Clinton says women across the globe suffer due a lack of knowledge about their health, childbirth conditions and workplace roles. She says data gaps undermine the progress of women and girls.

The initiative is called "Data 2x."

It's a partnership between Bloomberg Philanthropies, the Clinton Foundation and the United Nations Foundation.

For example... Women in the Middle East deserve equal time and attention from their husband as do all of his wives.

Another example: Young, impressible female interns should not be alone in oval shaped offices with men of power who are known sexual predators.

Just sayin’.

Thank you Messers Clinton and Bloomberg, but I’m perfectly able to take care of myself.

Look around the world at all the places women are treated like garbage. Thats where the focus should be. Not here.

A person can only be treated as garbage if she allows herself to be (I am a woman, btw)

I would not hang around to be mistreated, and if I had children, I wouldn’t keep them around a man who was abusing me.

I’d figure out some way to get out of the situation.—
