Why BBC World Service cares so much about reaching female audiences online, and what we have learned about how women tend to engage on social media. This week we travel from the incredible tale of the Gaza boy who carried his baby brother for 10 kilometers to find their family, to the story of a Brazilian woman who found she had XY chromosomes in her blood. Plus, CrowdScience finds out why we so rarely hold memories of being a baby - and we hear from an American man who found his mum in his local bakery.
