"The journalist Christina Selby, writing at the Open Notebook, compiled a list of tips for diversifying sources. The journalist Mollie Bloudoff-Indelicato created Diverse Sources, a searchable database of underrepresented experts in science. 500 Women Scientists, a nonprofit, created Request a Woman Scientist, a similar (and larger) database. Both can be filtered by country, specialty, and more. Several scientists have compiled lists of women in microbiology, astronomy, physics, evolution, political science, neuroscience, and more."

** reason for the uneven management sex ratio is our inability to discern between confidence and competence.
 
** leaderless groups have a natural tendency to elect self-centered, overconfident and narcissistic individuals as leaders, and that these personality characteristics are not equally common in men and women.
 
** Most of the character traits that are truly advantageous for effective leadership are predominantly found in those who fail to impress others about their talent for management.
 
*** Hitchhikers guide: It is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it... anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job. https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/d/douglasada125021.html
 
** The result is a pathological system that rewards men for their incompetence while punishing women for their competence, to everybody’s detriment.

** "feminism is a movement that seeks to achieve equal rights for women. This focus is necessary, because we live in a world of historically and culturally inscribed female disadvantage. "
 
** "Most of the feminists I know care about how gender inequality affects men. Of course they do – they're egalitarians. "
 
** Men: "You don't have to be a feminist. There are plenty of ways to be awesome without working towards equal rights for women."
 
** "please, if you are worrying about what feminism will do without you, stop. The feminist movement does not need you. It's doing a pretty incredible job of tackling female disadvantage without pandering to reluctant allies."

===Anti-patriarchy===
 
 
 
* "Patriarchy has always had room for the Exceptional Woman—the one woman smart enough, sweet enough, strong enough, soft enough, pure enough, sexy enough to satisfy all of our culture's contradictory demands on women, and thus make it to the top of a sexist system on merit alone. Patriarchy needs that woman. She provides men with an excuse to blame women for their own pain and struggles while simultaneously assuring women that sexism only needs to be outwitted to be overcome.

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.

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.

** Women are enculturated to be uncomfortable most of the time. And to ignore their discomfort.
 
** the flip side of a known psychological phenomenon called "relative deprivation," by which disenfranchised groups, having been trained to expect little, tend paradoxically to report the same levels of satisfaction as their better-treated, more privileged peers.
 
** we live in a culture that sees female pain as normal and male pleasure as a right.
 
** At every turn, women are taught that how someone reacts to them does more to establish their goodness and worth than anything they themselves might feel.
 
** One side effect of teaching one gender to outsource its pleasure to a third party (and endure a lot of discomfort in the process) is that they're going to be poor analysts of their own discomfort, which they have been persistently taught to ignore.

** ''what could be more terrifying than an angry, powerful woman, especially if you secretly care a little bit more about being comfortable than you do about justice?''
 
** Sex is not the problem. Sexism is the problem, ...
 
** An attack on patriarchy, male supremacy, and sexual oppression ... is far harder to allow.
 
** Right now, if a man makes a mistake and hurts someone, it might, just for once, ruin his career — but it seems that if a woman makes a mistake and hurts someone right back, or allows her pain to be twisted to serve someone else’s agenda, she damns not just herself, but all other women by association.

** so many men are assholes. I am just so sick of it.
 
** I don’t always feel just one way. I’m not always sure. And maybe that’s what it is to be a grown-up—living in the middle place, where you can’t decide quickly about everything. A misanthrope, in love with the world.

** the suffocating ubiquity of harassment and abuse; the election of a multiply accused predator
 
** “It’s an absolutely bizarre thing to go through, and it’s fucking exhausting and horrible, and I hate it. And I’m glad. I’m so glad we’re doing it. And I’m in hell.”
 
** I’m half-frustrated by men who can’t differentiate between harmless flirtation and harassment, because I believe that most women can.
 
** Part of it is the decades we’ve spent being pressured to underreact, ... Resentments accrete, mature into rage.
 
** “I stuffed all my harassment memories in an emotional trash compactor because there are just so many,” says my friend Amina Sow. “Now the trash compactor is broken, and everything is coming up.”
 
** We can rebuff the harasser; we can choose not to fuck the boss. But in a world where men hold inordinate power, we’re still in bed with the guy.
 
** relatively affluent white women in elite professions, women who’ve worked closely enough with powerful white men to be available for harassment. Racism and class discrimination determine whose stories get picked up and which women are readily believed.
 
** Because without real, genuine penalties on the line, without generations of men fearing that if they abuse their power, if they treat women like shit, they’ll be out of jobs, shamed, their families devastated — without that actual, electric, dangerous possibility: Nothing. Will. Change.
 
** this world is stacked in favor of men, yes, in a way that is so widely understood as to be boring, invisible, just life.
 
** He didn’t consider this because in a basic way, he did not think of us as equals.
 
* https://www.thecut.com/2017/12/rebecca-traister-this-moment-isnt-just-about-sex.html
 
** power structures that makes it harder for women to do work because the whole thing is tipped toward men.
 
** how butt-groping or unsolicited kissing can exist on the same scale as violent rape -- the thing that unites these varied revelations is... professional harm and power abuse.
 
** sexual harassment is ... a form of discrimination.
 
** the systemic disadvantaging of a gender in the public and professional sphere.
 
** white men, have been afforded a disproportionate share of power.
 
** '''women are evaluated aesthetically by men whose evaluations matter more than women’s work, in contexts that have nothing to do with aesthetics.''' (RIPE75, mat-wg!)
 
** these are still the terms on which we are valued, by our colleagues, our bosses, sometimes our competitors, the men we tricked ourselves into thinking might see us as smart, formidable colleagues or rivals,
 
** We don’t consider all the women who — driven out, banished, self-exiled, or marginalized — might have been more talented or brilliant or comforting to us, on our airwaves or in our governing bodies, but whom we have never even gotten the chance to know.
 
** if they did not speak out against ____, they would be tarred as self-interested hypocrites;  if they did speak out against him, they would be viewed as self-interested executioners.
 
** None of this is simple; none of it is easy; it’s increasingly difficult to parse and to live through.
 
** ''Having this conversation as if it’s about sex, and not about equality, involves trauma and pain in its own ways: memories of the visceral fear, physical pain, emotional suffering of nonconsensual contact that so many of us have experienced, to one degree or another.''
 
** beginning to dismantle men’s unjustly disproportionate claim to every kind of power in the public and professional world.

* Interrupting
 
** https://ryn.works/2015/01/13/on-interrupting-interrupt-culture/
 
*** How about let’s have 2015 be the year that we stop looking for “rockstars” and stop tolerating “rockstar” behavior like people who constantly interrupt and speak over others because their “rockstar” opinion is just that damn important. If we all mindfully work to interrupt this interrupt culture, all voices can be heard, and everyone wins.
 
** https://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/11/opinion/sunday/speaking-while-female.html
 
*** When a woman speaks in a professional setting, she walks a tightrope. Either she’s barely heard or she’s judged as too aggressive. When a man says virtually the same thing, heads nod in appreciation for his fine idea. As a result, women often decide that saying less is more.
