My field site in grad school had no working toilet. Men just peed in the woods, while women had to drive 10 minutes to a gas station to go. Ashamed to say I never gave it a second thought at the time, but I’m glad this issue is now getting the attention it deserves! 🚽

Taboos around toilet care can make fieldwork uncomfortable and even dangerous some scientists say. Can something as simple as a bathroom break be an issue of diversity and inclusion? Read more from journalist Freda Kreier.

canceling plans is ok. changing your entire look is ok. chasing an ancient instinct to swim thousands of miles upstream to return to your natal waters just to reproduce once and die so that your carcass can sustain an entire ecosystem is ok. do whatever you need to do to cope.
