I guess it's because it's in Women's Health, but it seems very strange (to the point of misleading) that the headline is gendered when I don't think there's anything in the article that would justify that framing.
I agree both that the concept probably applies to all people and that the title probably is what it is because of the publication. But I left it because of HN conventions on not editing titles
Boulder is a remote place? Maybe the headline (and article) could be rewritten “moving away from your support network can leave you without… wait for it, a support network.”
