Powerful video shows the life-threatening impacts of living in a world designed for men

Research shows that we aren't collecting sex disaggregated data about women and, as a result, the world that surrounds us is designed for men. This shocking video by Plan International Norway looks at the tangible ways women and girls' lives are placed at risk by inequality. The video begins with a woman being told she's pregnant by a doctor, who follows up by telling her abortion is illegal in the country in which she resides. It's a horrifying moment -- but one that women in countries or states with total bans or restrictive abortion laws might identify with. The next scene of the video explores the impact of Google's speech-recognition software, which a researcher at the University of Washington found to be 70 percent more likely to accurately recognise male speech.
