      You’re missing the story. Her preparation for her career, her personal incident that happened which many women experience and her ability to use her gifts and personal life resources to become an exceptional person despite all the challenges. She’s an excellent representative of all of us American women.

      Its because they don't actually go to space and no one has ever been. They're in a Zero Gravity/ Reduced- Gravity aircraft such as a Boeing 727, G-Force One. There's a lot of videos on this subject here on RUclips. They lie in our faces.

    "Generational trauma". That's a thing. I am personally generationally traumatized by some of my predecessors starving in Ireland. They didn't get a free boat ride or plane ride to Merica. Merica didn't save them from the Chinese, the Ruskies, or ...nobody. They just starved. Also, I too am fat. I'm intelligent. I was raped. I won't speak just for Vietnamese women and Asian women, because Ithat smacks of discrimination against white women. I wanna go space! I get misty eyed when I think young Asian Merican women have contempt for white women. Really think Fatty in Space has nothing to do with white women supporting them? Don't make me sue onacounta discrimination!
    I remember when a NASA astronaut got in deep doo doo for carrying a roll of dimes into space, I guess a chunk of 30 pounds, a heft of 35 pounds, doesn't matter. Big Boy seats.
