Speaking at an event for women in Los Angeles this week, Barbra Streisand complained that society is so misogynistic, even female laboratory mice are being discriminated against.“Gender discrimination drives me crazy,” said the multiple Grammy and Academy award-winning actress and singer. “Women are still treated as second-class citizens when it comes to equal pay in the workplace and equal representation in Congress.”According to The Hollywood Reporter, Streisand then opened up about her life’s mission to fight women’s heart disease.“More women are dying of heart disease each year than men. And here is the fact that really shocks me: heart disease kills more women than all cancers combined,” she said.Streisand, who has made contributions toward heart disease research for nearly three decades, then spoke out about gender inequality in medical research.“Gender inequality even extends to mice in the labs,” she said. “They’re all male!”
I'm all for Barbra becoming the subject of medical research testing.
