The subtle art of misogyny, by Bidisha - via Illusionists on Twitter:

"Do I think it's a misogynist conspiracy? ... No. It's worse than that: it's a coincidence, demonstrating just how ubiquitous and automatic misogyny is."

I hate to say this, but I agree with her. It's true, and to the point that we don't realize it ourselves half the time.

This made me wince:

"Both sexes unquestioningly perpetuate the boys' club through the invites issued to men, the opportunities, associations, deals and chances offered. The talks, readings, colloquia, special trips, lectures and guest spots are organised by women for the benefit of men's careers. "

And this part really hit home:

"Misogyny is not something forcefully, loudly imposed by a mighty superpower. It is constantly, silently, automatically enacted by all the people present, including those who feel perturbed but don't speak up."
