According to a study by #EndSexismInSchools, only 2% of GCSE students study a novel by a female author, 67% of GCSE texts for modern literature are by male authors, and 69% have male protagonists. If teachers are going to prepare students for the future, itβs high time they let go of the past. #FeministFriday #GenderEquality #representation #GCSE #education

@jeffowski While Iβm no fan of a white, straight, Christian, male dominated society, this position makes zero sense to me.
We arenβt talking about a real male or a female here: itβs a #computerized #tech voice. And it can be changed!
But even if it WERE a real voice, the counterpoint is clear:
If men are the default to βprovide answersβ in our society, how lovely that we now turn to βwomenβ - by default - for our answers.
If #representation matters, this is a lot of it.

I would put all four of those parties at 4 (out of 5) or higher on the #statism axis, and 4 or higher on the rationalism axis as well. This also goes for other national parties that have come and gone or merged or split - Progressive Conservatives, CCP, etc.
That means they all occupy a space representing only 4% of the chart.
No wonder the public thinks "the parties are all the same" and "whatever they promise they all just do the same thing". It's literally true!

I find it frustrating to have to constantly deal with the question "is it a qualification in itself to be a woman?" when talking about #representation in the #business world.
First of all: Yes, it absolutely can be. We know factually that #diversity = performance, so if what's missing is women, then yes, it's a qualification.
Secondly: Is it one to be a man? We also know that male-ness is a tacit qualification by default; why is this so hard to grasp for men? Afraid to lose a leg-up much?

Turns out that in the Polish dubbing of the movie Nimona the titular character uses ono/jego pronouns that are the Polish equivalent of singular they/them! These are the pronouns I use and they aren't yet widely known or accepted because of the ignorance surrounding non-binary people here in Poland so it's super exciting to see them used so openly in a big movie!! I feel extremely represented rn >~<
