Dear men. I'm a feminist and as sick of misogyny and toxic masculinity as it's possible to be. But seriously, if I need CPR, I really don't care that you might touch my bloody tits.

95% of the CPR training dummies on the global market are based on the male form.
People are less likely to do CPR on women because boobs and bra and bad knowledge.
Women are 50% of the population.
Medical misogyny is still rife.

Also I kind of fancy sentient conscious women rather than comatose bodies.
if only I had the skills
I can only imagine where the training would go with half a dozen teenage boys and manikins with boobs.
The issue of removing clothing to perform CPR does get discussed though.
This is easier with lifeguards who must complete a set amount of training every month/year.
I'm confident that those I trained would approach CPR in the same manner, regardless of the gender of the casualty.
Should you ever need CPR in my presence, I'm trained, and not so flipping precious that I think your tits would get in the way.
A man.
When I had AED training was just told, the bra comes off, don’t overthink it. It’s someone’s life at the end of the day.

A doctor was present (luckily) performed a CPR and my nephew was save, but the doctor broke a rib. Visibly broken.
The father was there and you know what it did say to the doctor?
He said: "Thank you."
Nothing more, nothing less.
