Claire Foy: Actresses should be proud to play wives and mothers - "Actresses should be proud to play wives and mothers - rather than action roles that are “basically just men” in female form, Claire Foy has said. Keira Knightley and Carey Mulligan are among the stars who have said they want to play more challenging parts than the wife of a lead character. However, Foy, best known for portraying the Queen in early series of The Crown, said that to not take such roles would “underestimate the fact that women have, for centuries, been wives and mothers, and still are. That’s denying our entire history of what it means to be a woman”."
If equality means sending my daughters to war, I want no part of it - "It was only when I heard that Congress is seeking to expand selective service requirements to include both genders that I realized how much I oppose it. Earlier this year, a dramatic change was made to the nation’s military policies that opened nearly all combat roles to women. The next question to follow was, if women are eligible to participate in all combat roles, should the draft be made mandatory for women as well?... being a feminist doesn’t have to mean standing up for sending our daughters to war. I am a feminist, and I do not support including women in selective service. When you are not included in something that no one wants to do — in this case, going off to war — it’s not discrimination; it’s a privilege. Some say women should give up that privilege in the name of equality between men and women. But here’s the thing about equality: Men and women are not equal. That’s right — I’m a feminist, I am a mother of two girls, and I am saying that men and women are not equal. In the event of a draft, sending women off to war does not present an equal opportunity to women by nature of the fact that women are physically different from men. As much as we may work to try to level the playing field between men and women, the physical differences between us as created by nature make us inherently unequal and cannot be universally overcome. Combat is not an equal opportunity situation for men and women, because the average woman does not have an equal opportunity to survive a combat situation. The Army’s own studies have shown that women have more than double the rate of injury of their male counterparts in combat training. I can only imagine that those numbers would be even more dramatic in actual combat. I can’t fathom sending my daughters off to fight in an already dangerous situation, where they are known to be at a physical disadvantage."
She can't even claim she is opposed to the draft on principle
Of course, if an anti-feminist points out other instances that men and women are not created equal, she'd probably call him a misogynist
Congress drops provision for women to register for the draft
Equality!
Supreme Court Won't Hear Challenge To Men-Only Draft Registration - "Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Stephen Breyer and Brett Kavanaugh acknowledged that when the draft was originally enacted, women were not eligible for combat roles, a situation that has dramatically changed in modern times. But they noted Congress is currently considering the question of including women in the draft registration. In 2016 it created the National Commission on Military, National, and Public Service to study the matter, and the commission has now released a final report recommending that draft registration include both men and women between the ages of 18 and 26... The court considered and rejected a nearly identical claim in 1981. Draft registration, the court reasoned then, is meant to help the military fill combat roles. At the time, though, women were barred from combat, so the court held that men-only registration was perfectly sensible."
Since it was dropped again, maybe people can sue again
Twyla Naythias's answer to Do feminists support women being eligible for the military draft (like the US selective service registration system)? - Quora - "Because Feminists have a propensity to pick-and-choose where they want men and women to be equals, leaving men to suck if elsewhere for the ‘crime’ of being men. Few things exemplify this attitude more than the Feminist-penned, Feminist-backed Hayden Rider:
The provisions of this article shall not be construed to impair any rights, benefits, or exemptions now or hereafter conferred by law upon persons of the female sex.
Or, in simpler terms, female supremacy. Equal rights supporters refuse to allow the ERA to pass so long as it contains this blatantly-sexist rider, while Feminists refuse to allow the ERA to pass without it. Hardly surprising given how they’ve so entrenched their highly-flawed Duluth Model
that even non-Feminists are surprised to learn that the CDC Finds Women Commit Half Of Domestic Violence and Harvard Says 70% 0f Domestic Violence is Committed By Women Against Men"
Jagmeet Singh says he always believes survivors. Well, here's another one
Christine Moore has, it seems, been hoisted by her own lustful petard | The Star - "She served him gin drinks although Kirkland had been reluctant because of the medications he was taking, anti-depressants and painkillers. “But she’s a registered nurse. I figured she would know if it was all right.’’ Moore, he says, told the other guests that she had business to attend to, ushering them out. But Kirkland she kept behind. There were more drinks. “That’s when I finally realized what was happening.” Even in a alcohol and drugs fuzz, it became evident to Kirkland, he says, that Moore had an interest in him of a more particular and personal variety. “I wouldn’t have been in that position if I hadn’t been (inebriated).’’... It was Moore who brought to caucus claims of alleged sexually harassment by Weir against females who hadn’t come forward — allegations that he stood too close at functions, sought out their company, hovered too long, all of it a far cry from sexual harassment as most of us understand it. Weir, MP for Regina-Lewvan, was suspended from caucus while an exceedingly non-transparent investigation was launched. Last week, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, said that the independent investigator concluded “the evidence” sustained one claim of harassment and three claims of sexual harassment. Weir was expelled from caucus... “Just because of an allegation that’s now risen, which we take seriously, in no way should cast any question of credibility about other allegations,” Singh told reporters outside the House of Commons on Wednesday. “This notion has happened far too often for women and is not an acceptable line of argument.”"
Some survivors are more equal than others

Hassan, feminist Twitch partnership manager, fired for sexual harassment - "Hassan was known to the community to being a bit of a “feminist” and, according to YouTube comedian It’sAGundam, a “defender of thots.” Hassan would be the go to guy for female partnered Twitch when they wanted issues resolved or just wanted to call in favours. The Twitch partnership manager would often resolve account strikes and remove suspensions from his favourite female Twitch partners, but would be rather harsh on male streamers. However, according to Vio, he wouldn’t just do this to be nice; he had ulterior motives. Hassan allegedly leveraged his position as a Twitch partner manager to get sexual favours from aspiring female Twitch streamers. He’d boast and brag about his work while trying to impress them. He’d also promise them fame and fortune. At least that was the case for Vio... Vio names two abusers in her statement: Hassan and Luminosity. Luminosity is still on Twitch despite being exposed soliciting lewd photos from women. So, if Twitch were to ban/fire Hasssan for this type of misconduct, they’d need to be consistent and do the same to Luminosity. Twitch, though, isn’t really known for being consistent when enforcing their policies. Was Bokhari fired for leaking sensitive information?"

ZUBY: on Twitter - "Modern feminism has programmed women to think that looking after a husband and children who adore them is 'backwards' and 'oppressive', but working 50+ hours a week for a soulless corporation (whilst getting turned out by men who don't give a crap about them) is 'empowering'. 💀
The Patriarchy™ needed to increase the tax base and slash wages of the average worker. They also needed to de-stabilise society and the family unit, to make people easier to control and more reliant on the state. You all fell for it and here we are. Most successful psyop ever.
The fact that many Western women now consider looking after their own families and raising their children 'unpaid labour' shows us how deeply rooted the brainwashing is. It would be hilarious if it were not so utterly tragic. Oh well. The world is a big place!
People talk about 'choice' but the reality is that choices for men and women have been greatly restricted. 'Choice' is largely an illusion for most people, because doing things the traditional way is (intentionally) harder now - financially, logistically & societally."
Fury as AA says it would NOT help a lone woman before a man at roadside - "The AA has been slammed by members after the car breakdown firm confirmed it does not prioritise call outs based on gender. A member who had broken down 'at night in the dark' claimed on Twitter she had been told by an AA call handler that the firm treats lone women and men exactly the same because 'that's equality'. Dr Helen Mott said she would then have to wait 'alone in the dark for 90 minutes or more' and added that the firm's policies 'need a revamp'. Responding to her tweet, an AA spokesman confirmed they do not prioritise based on gender and instead 'consider the location', meaning they would give preference to a person broken down on a motorway over someone in a supermarket car park. Furious members then slammed the firm, with one saying she was 'cancelling her membership' and others claiming to have had a similar experience to Dr Mott. AA president Sir Edmund King also intervened, to say the firm gives priority to 'anyone at risk'... The popular anonymous barrister who uses the @CrimeGirl Twitter handle then claimed she would be cancelling her membership. She said: 'The police prioritise lone females and so do the highways agency, because they recognise their sex places women AT RISK FROM MEN.' But a Metropolitan Police spokesman said they do not prioritise calls based on 'any one single factor.'"

She Wrote Fake News for Cosmo, but Regrets Misleading Women - "Sue Ellen Browder... a Cosmopolitan magazine writer for 20 years, describes what she wrote as “propaganda.” The goal? To sell women on the idea that sexual liberation is the path to the single woman’s personal fulfillment. “Propaganda is very sophisticated,” Browder tells The Daily Signal. “It’s half-truth, selected truth, and truth out of context.” “Propaganda is used not to sell just products,” she adds. “It’s also used to sell ideas.”... Beginning in 1971, Browder worked under the legendary Helen Gurley Brown, who was Cosmopolitan’s editor-in-chief for more than 30 years and author of the bestselling 1962 book “Sex and the Single Girl.” Taking cues from Playboy magazine, Brown turned the struggling magazine into an international empire. She gave her writers a printed list of rules to follow, which included instructions about how to make up parts of their stories to sound more convincing... By planting salacious stories about women having extravagant affairs in places such as Cleveland and Des Moines, Browder says, “the magazine spread its mores throughout the country and throughout the culture by pretending that they were much more widespread than they actually were.” One of those Cosmo mores was the idea that abortion was a woman’s “right,” years before the Supreme Court ruled it a constitutionally protected right. Browder details the story of how a small group of feminists inserted abortion into the agenda of the women’s movement in her 2015 book “Subverted: How I Helped the Sexual Revolution Hijack the Women’s Movement.” She documents the disgust of many pro-life feminists. But from that point on, the narrative was set. “Essentially, ‘All women want this.’ And that is how propaganda works”... “Why was Cosmo so successful? Because it attracted advertisers. Why did it attract advertisers? Because it worked. When a young woman, an insecure young woman, reads these magazines and thinks that she has to have perfume, cosmetics, hair products, beautiful clothes, singles travel … abortions, contraception, when she thinks she has to have all of these things, she’s going to spend a lot of money.”"
Does blind recruitment actually achieve its aims? - "participants were 2.9% more likely to shortlist female candidates and 3.2% less likely to shortlist male applicants when they were identifiable, as opposed to when they were de-identified. Moreover, minority males were 5.8% more likely to be shortlisted and minority females were 8.6% more likely to be shortlisted when identifiable compared to when applications were de-identified. Male reviewers also showed more positive discrimination towards minority candidates than did female counterparts, and reviewers aged over 40 displayed much stronger affirmative action in favour for both women and minorities than did younger ones. In conclusion, the study authors argued for caution when moving towards blind recruitment strategies in the Australian Public Service, as de-identification may not be always successful in promoting diversity. Indeed, the Harvard academic who oversaw the study, Professor Michael Hiscox, said the results were surprising... "We should hit pause and be very cautious about introducing this as a way of improving diversity, as it can have the opposite effect.”"
I previously linked this, but I didn't know there was also positive discrimination for "minorities"
Testing the Presence of Implicit Hiring Quotas with Application to German Universities - "It is widely accepted that women are underrepresented in academia in general and economics in particular. This paper introduces a test to detect an under-researched form of hiring bias: implicit quotas. I derive a test under the Null of random hiring that requires no information about individual hires under some assumptions. I derive the asymptotic distribution of this test statistic and, as an alternative, propose a parametric bootstrap procedure that samples from the exact distribution. This test can be used to analyze a variety of other hiring settings. I analyze the distribution of female professors at German universities across 50 different disciplines. I show that the distribution of women, given the average number of women in the respective field, is highly unlikely to result from a random allocation of women across departments and more likely to stem from an implicit quota of one or two women on the department level. I also show that a large part of the variation in the share of women across STEM and non-STEM disciplines could be explained by a two-women quota on the department level. These findings have important implications for the potential effectiveness of policies aimed at reducing underrepresentation and providing evidence of how stakeholders perceive and evaluate diversity."
We built voice modulation to mask gender in technical interviews. Here's what happened. - "interviewing.io is a platform where people can practice technical interviewing anonymously and, in the process, find jobs based on their interview performance rather than their resumes. Since we started, we’ve amassed data from thousands of technical interviews, and in this blog, we routinely share some of the surprising stuff we’ve learned. In this post, I’ll talk about what happened when we built real-time voice masking to investigate the magnitude of bias against women in technical interviews. In short, we made men sound like women and women sound like men and looked at how that affected their interview performance. We also looked at what happened when women did poorly in interviews, how drastically that differed from men’s behavior, and why that difference matters for the thorny issue of the gender gap in tech...
Women historically haven’t performed as well as men... we decided to see what would happen to interviewees’ performance when we started messing with their perceived genders... Contrary to what we expected (and probably contrary to what you expected as well!), masking gender had no effect on interview performance with respect to any of the scoring criteria (would advance to next round, technical ability, problem solving ability). If anything, we started to notice some trends in the opposite direction of what we expected: for technical ability, it appeared that men who were modulated to sound like women did a bit better than unmodulated men and that women who were modulated to sound like men did a bit worse than unmodulated women. Though these trends weren’t statistically significant, I am mentioning them because they were unexpected and definitely something to watch for as we collect more data."
Clearly gender bias is the reason for women being underrepresented in tech. Just like Williams and Ceci 2015 found that gender bias is the reason for women being underrepresented in STEM (not)
Another study (building on the Australian public service study) suggesting that there is no gender bias against women, since gender blinding / a gender blind interview doesn't reduce "bias" against women

Secondly, it is the supervisor who has the final responsibility for the success or failure of the project. We hear of cases where a supervisor blames his student for a failure, but we know that it is largely the fault of the supervisor. It seems only fair to me that he should benefit from the successes, too. Thirdly, I believe it would demean Nobel Prizes if they were awarded to research students, except in very exceptional cases, and I do not believe this is one of them. Finally, I am not myself upset about it – after all, I am in good company, am I not!'"

Differences in Lesbian, Bisexual, and Heterosexual Women's Experiences of Sexual Assault and Rape in a National U.S. Sample - "Lesbian and bisexual women experience significantly higher rates of sexual assault and rape compared with heterosexual women. Despite this, researchers have yet to distinguish whether sexual orientation itself or some other related social characteristics explain these higher rates. The objective of this study was to analyze women's rates of sexual assault and rape across sexual orientation status while accounting for other social characteristics (e.g., race, education, income, outness). Women (N = 1,366), who identified as lesbian (31%), bisexual (32%), and heterosexual (31%), completed a nationally distributed, cross-sectional online survey in 2016. Victimization and repeat victimization were assessed using a modified version of Sexual Experience Survey-Short Form Victimization. Overall, 63% of bisexual, 49% of lesbian, and 35% of heterosexual women reported experiencing rape in their lifetime. When holding all other social characteristics constant, sexual orientation remained a significant predictor in the model. Compared with the odds of heterosexual women experiencing sexual assault or rape, bisexual women (3.7 odds of victimization; 7.3 odds of repeat victimization) and lesbian women (3.2 odds of repeat victimization) were disproportionately victimized. Sexual orientation clearly plays a role in sexual victimization risk, independent of other measured sociodemographic indicators. Continued research is needed to explore possible mechanisms behind sexual assault and rape prevalence, as well as the influence of contextual factors of victimization risk among sexual minority men."
Of course, feminists complain about "rape culture" but will ignore this - or blame straight white men. So much for that meme claiming "lesbians can control themselves when girls are wearing revealing clothes" so "maybe the problem is not the clothes"
Addendum: Intimate Partner Violence in the United States — 2010 - "Bisexual women had a significantly higher prevalence of lifetime rape, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner (61.1%) compared to lesbian women (43.8%) and heterosexual women (35.0%).
The lifetime prevalence of rape, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner was 29.0% among heterosexual men, 37.3% among bisexual men, and 26.0% among gay men."
In other words, women rape/abuse each other more than men rape women, so ragging on men is problematic at best. It is telling that among men, homosexuals have the lowest rate of rape/abuse, which suggests that women are more likely to rape / engage in domestic abuse than men. This coheres with 70% of non-reciprocal domestic violence being on women
Addendum to addendum: One cope is that due to methodological factors we can't conclude that lesbian domestic violence is higher than heterosexual domestic violence, but both of these studies are representative. Plus we know that female prisons have more inmate-on-inmate sexual victimisation, which coheres with the other 2 studies.

Minter Ellison’s Christian Porter moment leads to split in law firm - "the lawyer (and long-time defamation adviser to The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald) was helping Attorney-General Christian Porter respond to allegations he had raped a 16-year-old girl in 1988 – allegations he strongly denies. Kimmitt’s email was a direct challenge to Bartlett. “The acceptance of this matter did not go through the firm’s due consultation or approval processes. Had it done so, we would have considered the matter through the lens of our Purpose and Values,” she wrote. “The nature of this matter is clearly causing hurt to some of you, and it has certainly triggered hurt for me. I know that for many it may be a tough day, and I want to apologise for the pain you may be experiencing.”... By the end of this week, the email exchange had cost Kimmitt her job. She is the highest profile scalp so far from the public debate over sexism and sexual assault now engulfing Australian politics... “Once again, a woman pays the price for speaking up,” tweeted the Greens Senate leader, Larissa Waters amid a stream of social media criticism of the firm. But the events at MinterEllison this week highlight another issue too: the tension inside many venerable legal firms between legal tradition and a new emphasis on their “social licence” to operate. Dozens of lawyers, junior and senior, interviewed this week – off the record – said this conflict was playing out across legal precincts in Sydney and Melbourne... Big firms sell the idea that they are socially responsible to appear attractive to younger staff, while still taking on clients who can pay the bills – big tobacco, big pharma and in this case, someone accused of historical rape... For many at MinterEllison and in the wider legal fraternity, Kimmitt had very publicly jettisoned the core principles of the profession and potentially damaged a client, regardless of any good intentions. “The statement basically suggested that Porter was not a right fit for MinterEllison based simply on an allegation, an allegation that was strongly denied and unproven. In a sense, it also implied a prejudgment on the very matter that is in contest,” said barrister Dr Matt Collins QC, a former president of the Victorian Bar."
