Study visually captures a hard truth: Walking home at night is not the same for women (phys.org)

An eye-catching new study shows just how different the experience of walking home at night is for women versus men.

The study, led by Brigham Young University public health professor Robbie Chaney, provides clear visual evidence of the constant environmental scanning women conduct as they walk in the dark, a safety consideration the study shows is unique to their experience.

Id love to see the same study in Japan where it's safe to walk home at night even in Tokyo.
