Maybe the point is that, largely, it’s International Women’s Day and regardless of who they are normally, none of these men have written a single post so far recounting any part of any of the actual “Women’s Day” events happening around the country. Read more

Thanks. The male staff writing for Jez didn’t bring any of them up, so I thought I would. <3 Read more

It’s much more about the content contained and discussed within the realms of those topics, not necessarily the topics themselves. Like, for example, the post re: the girl statue on Wall Street. Read more

fuck that, sally would have cut off the bull’s head. destroy the guerilla art exhibit with guerilla art of your own. Read more

Yeah, I’m definitely in the minority of women in the sense that I am a regular reader who finds herself disappointed with Jezebel’s coverage today. Read more

I get your misreading — my point is that there are women on wall street, already, which actually *is* a reality women exist in every day, but that they’re constantly and consistently overlooked when it comes to ‘doing business,’ except in positions where our female-ness can be used as a token display of our sincere Read more

I’m sorry, is your argument that that page means they’re diverse? 5 women on a page about ‘leadership’ featuring 28 total members on the page, only one of whom is a woman of color, figuring out to less than 1/4 female membership in leadership ranks. Read more

my commentary today is intended to provoke discussions about what ‘valuable content’ means to women, not to endlessly and blindly contribute to a single blog network.

TLDR: Ad agency makes token gesture of support to women on International Women’s Day; Male Press Gives them Ad Traffic Read more

I think the idea that we need to perform, accept, or tolerate the performance of jokes about the exclusion of women’s perspectives, commentary, and narratives on “international women’s day” is the point I’m actually trying to make, friend. Read more

This is, again, kind of my point. If they sustain their viewership on clicks and click revenue, then surely they’d want to actually consider what it means to produce content for a site that is, primarily, women-facing. Read more

Thanks! This just in: juuuuuust realized the dudes writing today are committing a fundamental interpretation of ‘Marie Antoinette,’ “let them have cake” to the masthead’s digital memory. Read more

I’ll be honest, yeah. NO posts would make a stronger message, something along the lines of “oh fuck, we actually wanted to take this seriously, not spend all day making a bunch of dudebro jokes that we know will invite trolling on an admittedly feminist readership.” Read more

Personally, I really did not get the sense that I was happy or comforted by the idea that these kinda posts are kinda the point of getting the men to write on Jezebel for a day. International Women’s Day, a ton of political priorities that actually matter at stake? Read more

Can confirm. Never saw my dad chop wood, he just made me, his trans daughter, and my brother, go take care of the wood while my sister stayed inside and watched Gilmore Girls. Read more
