women should not be in the workplace. They are not serious economists. They just like to put on cute outfits and have undergrads give them attention. It's all about attention.
It's people like you that make academia such a toxic place.
"Academia is almost like it was designed without women in mind.."

If Academia really wants to design it for women, they need to start offering benefits packages encouraging women to live an An'al Only Lifestyle. That way they are personally satisfied and can focus on their career development and accomplishments.
The sad thing i that i am starting to come around to this point of view

Women love patting themselves on the back. They want all the perks of being a woman in academia and will cry foul on top of it. A sad tired trope. Pretty much the powerful position one can be in is to be an attractive woman. The red carpet will be rolled out for you.
I like patting women on the front.

Have you thought about trying another career then?
What other career will tolerate an unpresentable, barely literate Chinese dumpling like her? All she can do is go back to her obese uncle’s flop shop where she’ll wash dishes for a dollar an hour while he lifetime NEET video game brothers take turns molesting her!

The key issue and no one discusses is why is it that we assume that women should bear all the cost of having children?
Because it's their natural role, while men's natural role is to provide. I'm not sure what we have to gain by inverting that.
It makes as much sense as if we tried living underwater. We could try, sure, and up to a point I think we could even succeed. But what's the point?
-
And I don't think it's a particularly regressive or oppressive view. My grandma is still alive, my grandpa died a few years into retirement after a "career" breaking his back working manual labor.
Work is generally associated with constraints, with men. That so many women want to escape a life of baking cookies for their kids to join something that has always been associated with pain, suffering, injury and death means that something as changed.
What has changed is that some modern forms of work are in fact disguised welfare. If you're doing bulls**t research that does not affect anything, like X studies or some nonsense econ research that is obvious or useless, it's just welfare. You're getting paid to do nothing (of value).
Women want that welfare to be independent, but that's not something we should promote because it breaks down families, and ultimately societies.
-
Generally it's obvious to see because women only care about equality in safe, well-paid positions.
When computer programming was done by nerds and losers, few women wanted to promote "women in tech". But now geek is sexy and nerds are cool. Why? What has changed? What has changed is that the top 5 billionaires are nerds, that's what's changed.
Train modelling and fly fishing are still 100% male hobbies with not even a sign of women asking for equal representation, precisely because there's no money in it.

My name is Jaclyn Siegel, and I am a PhD candidate in social psychology at Western University, where I am the lab coordinator for Dr. Rachel Calogero's Stigma, Objectification, Bodies, and Resistance Lab.
My dissertation research centers on feminism as a social identity for young women and gender expansive people. Other streams of research I have explore body image and eating disorders, self- and sexual objectification, weight stigma, power and status, and sexist ideologies.
I use a range of methods to explore my various research interests: qualitative methods primarily, but also more traditional quantitative and experimental means. I am interested in Open Science, and I am sensitive to the uncomfortable intersection of feminist methods and open research.
Outside of the lab, I am an avid yogi (RYT-200) and movie musical enthusiast. I can often be found at feminist protests, Backroads Coffee and Cakery, or Brown and Dickson bookshop.
