You're listening to Movers and Shakers, a podcast about living with Parkinson's.

This episode is sponsored by the family of Britta Morse, a long-term Parkie, who loved the show until her sad death in August.

Hello, I'm Gillian Lacey Solomon, and we're back in the pub for another episode of Movers

and Shakers, the award-winning podcast about Living with Parkinson's. Before I tell you all the theme

of today's episode, let's go around the table

and see who's here. Rory Catlin Jones. Nicholas Mostyn. Mark Mardell. Paul Mayhew

Archer. Jeremy Vaxson. A lot of men. A lot of men. Funny that, isn't it? We shall come back

to that in just a second. Now, as we know, we're here to have a laugh and a moan on the subject, and the

subject matter today may cause quite a bit of moaning from my fellow movers and shakers

because it's a subject that doesn't touch them directly, or more accurately, doesn't affect them

directly. Parkinson's and women. Now, is this something that any of the five of you have thought about before?

Actually, yes, simply because I'm sitting opposite one of your guests on a Zoom conference or something we're doing together.

And I thought, yet another young woman with Parkinson's. Why does young onset affect women more than men or as much as men?

We will find out.

If you think about the cast of our fabulous video, which we keep plugging,

movies and shakers, we will survive.

We had Gaynor from young onset and a lot of her friends.

It began to look a bit more equal, the cast.

Nick, your perspective.

Well, I've thought about women in Parkinson's in the same way as I thought about women generally, having recently read, in fact, re-read invisible women.

Tell us about exposing database in a world designed for men.
