Anti-capitalism

• http://mobile.nytimes.com/blogs/opinionator/2015/10/15/a-feminism-where-leaning-in-means-leaning-on-others/

gendered, hierarchical division between “production” and “reproduction” is a defining structure of capitalist society 
and a deep source of the gender asymmetries hard-wired in it. 
There can be no “emancipation of women” so long as this structure remains intact.

feminist ideas are being twisted to serve neoliberal, capitalist ends.

The solutions for women will not be found in parity in a trade economy.

Gender Gap in Engineering

• http://www.iom3.org/events/engineering-success-national-women-engineering-day

• https://www.kateheddleston.com/blog/how-our-engineering-environments-are-killing-diversity-introduction

Women in tech are the canary in the coal mine. Normally when the canary in the coal mine starts dying 
you know the environment is toxic and you should get the hell out. Instead, the tech industry is looking at the canary, 
wondering why it can't breathe, saying “Lean in, canary. Lean in!” 
When one canary dies they get a new one because getting more canaries is how you fix the lack of canaries, right? 
Except the problem is that there isn't enough oxygen in the coal mine, not that there are too few canaries.
