1) Establish #BeautyStandards that are so narrow, they cancel every actress over 35. 2) Criticize every actress who tries to stay relevant past their imposed prime, by living up to said beauty standards. Double punishment keeps the Patriarchy alive and well—every time. #FeministFriday

August is Women in Translation Month. What is your one recommendation of a female author who has been translated (from any language to any language)? I have many, but today I will go for #TheDiaryOfAYoungGirl by #AnneFrank, translated from Dutch to 70 languages. What’s your pick? #booksky

Having been bombarded with a fair share of memes featuring #TaylorSwift and #TravisKelce, what stands out is that so many people are so invested, they feel the urge to channel all that animosity into petty attacks toward Swift. I have yet to come across a single post hating on Kelce. #FeministFriday

There is a heavy predominance of male-only clinical trials in the UK, exceeding female-only by 67%. The under-representation of data forces doctors and female patients to make decisions in a void of evidence. Call your Higher Education funding bodies and demand change. #FeministFriday #research
