This whole thing about a company needing more “masculine energy” reminds me of those old research stats about how men assume women are talking too much, ie more than 50%, during a conversation when the actual percentage is ridiculously low.

Or judging that there’s too many women in a movie’s crowd scene once it’s about 25-30% women.

Yes, good call. Honestly why does it feel like we’ve suddenly regressed to the 1950s? It’s quite upsetting, but maybe that’s just me. I’m exhausted, so everything feels exhausting.

@heyrochelle thank you, and also — nineteen fucking seventy nine? That’s barely older than me. Exhausting is the word.
