I have to laugh at you people. You downvoted one of my comments because I wrote that I thought Kim had avoided the hookup behavior which damages young women's character and makes them unsuitable for stable relationships with men?
In other words, you don't like the fact that I called her the opposite of a slut?
What a perverse world I live in, where we have both more sluts and more sexually rejected men than ever, yet the political correctness thought-police requires us to accept this situation as an "advanced" society.
Downvoting you now for repeated and offensive use of the word 'slut'.
Even a reactionary can opt for chivalry instead for misogyny. How many times have you seen C.S.Lewis or J.R.R. Tolkien using the word "slut"?
Kim Suozzi was a neuroscience student with brain cancer who wanted to be cryonically preserved but lacked the funds. She appealed to reddit and a foundation was set up, called the Society for Venturism. Enough money was raised, and when she died on the January 17th, she was preserved by Alcor.
I wasn't sure if I should post about this, but I was glad to see that enough money was raised and it was discussed on LessWrong here, here, and here.

Edit: It looks like Alcor actually worked with her to lower the costs, and waived some of the fees.
Edit 2: The Society for Venturism has been around for a while, and wasn't set up just for her.
