I had no idea about any of this history before our trip to Antarctica. And we have talked about this before with some of our listeners on National Park After Dark. But during our trip, we were obviously on a boat for a very long time. And for some of that time, we were

in different presentations that expedition leaders would present on the glaciology of the continent to the climate and mammals to early exploration. And there was one presentation in particular given by an expedition leader named Ellie about this, about women in Antarctica and the history of their participation or lack thereof. since the beginning of people coming down to the continent.

And it was one of the most profound lectures I've ever been a part of because I just never really thought of it before. And to know that it wasn't until the late 60s that women were permitted there. by the US. Australia, for example, came later as well because obviously different countries operate under different laws and regulations and things down on the continent.

But I just, I couldn't believe that for most of history, yeah, women were allowed, but on the ships. They could take one of the most dangerous treks across some of the most dangerous oceans to get to Antarctica and But once they were in the waters within reach of the continent, they had to stay on the ship while their husbands or the men of the crew could get off and do what they needed to do.

But they had to stay put. Right.

I also think it's a little strange how they repeatedly would point to their mental and physiological conditions or barriers and assigning reason to that. It's like, well, this is the reason because they are not physically capable of something like that. Women arguably undergo one of, if not the most physically demanding things in life, and that's childbirth.

All the time.
