Diversity is key when organizing most panels. When the panel is specifically about women, all women is OK. When the panel is specifically about men, all men is OK. When organizers are allowed to pretend that only men are the arbiters of gender neutral topics, we need to talk.
It’s just not true, though. Market forces have nothing to do with. Women focused films make a lot of money. Putting a woman in a movie increases the audience. There are way more male directed and starring films that flop, but men don’t get penalized the same way a woman does for flopping. It’s sexism, and it’s not…

I work in medical malpractice law, and I’m here to tell you, that’s true. Moreover, when there’s a wrongful death,…
I feel bad for kids that are homeless and hungry. This pampered little twit owns a house, for fuck’s sake.
Yes. Some traditions can really suck. I refused to do the bouquet/garter toss or most of the structured dances at my wedding (just first dance and father/daughter- my dad and I are great dancers and it meant a lot to him :)).

I get pins and needles and my palms immediately get sweaty, even from just seeing a picture.
