On Volunteering
Ever notice that women, far more often than men, are expected to volunteer their time and their effort? On the one hand, the implication is that women’s work has no value.

Women are presumed incompetent. (We know this.)
“As a man, you’re assumed to be competent unless proven otherwise,” she says. “Whereas as a woman you’re presumed to be incompetent unless proven otherwise” (Transgender Men and Sexism). When she transitioned, she gained authority and professional respect overnight.
(Now if only we could hear from transwomen. Hear them ADMIT that they LOST …

Berdahl found that women with relatively masculine personalities (e.g., assertive, dominant, and independent), compared to women who meet feminine ideals, experience the most sexual harassment. That is to say, “sexual harassment is primarily targeted at women who violate gender roles.”
Good to know.

Here’s a letter I haven’t seen yet … and I’m waiting … and waiting …
I don’t know what I was thinking. No, that’s not true. I do know what I was thinking. I was thinking I could be a gentler person, free of all that macho shit. I thought I could indulge my feminine side without shame (and yes, perhaps with praise). I thought I could finally be …

How Not to Deal with Smoke from Your Neighbour’s ‘Campfire’ that Forces You Inside with All the Windows Closed

(Not like you need one, probably.)
So I’m down …
