You will be wanting to read my excellent essay, 'Suzy the Computer' vs. 'Dr. Sexy': What's a Geek Girl to Do When She Wants to Get Laid? in She's Such a Geek! Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff.

If you have not yet figured out why you shoud not be using terms like "hard science" and "soft skills", then you absolutely need to read Telling Stories About Engineering: Group Dynamics and Resistance to Diversity in NWSA Journal v. 16 No. 1, 2004 (Re)Gendering Science Fields.

You should also read They Blinded Me With Science: Misuse and Misunderstanding of Biological Theory, an excellent critique of Thornhill and Palmer's nonsense about rape as an evolutionary strategy. You can find it in Burack and Josephson's must-read tome, Fundamental Differences: Feminists Talk Back to Social Conservatives.

Inky Circus Launchs Inkling Magazine!

Category: Why Aren't You Reading This?
Posted on: December 19, 2006 3:31 PM, by Zuska

If you enjoy reading Inky Circus, then you are probably going to enjoy the latest endeavor from the women who bring you that blog. That is, Inkling Magazine - subtitled, "On the Hunch That Science Rocks!" I particular like this Letter From Science Camp, in which Mike Gretes bares his soul about his love of crystallography.

Unbelievers will cry, but isn't science supposed to be the opposite of religion? O my people, truly I tell you, no, not at all. Here we are awake and surrounded by the Faithful for days, nay, weeks on end. Awake! We listen to the Good Word in lectures and lo, learn the rituals of experimental protocols that will allow us one day with the Lord's good Grace to be Saved, yea, to Graduate. There is enough wine and celibacy here that would make the Catholic Church blush with envy.

Yours truly also has a tiny piece in Inkling's inaugural issue. Go, enjoy.
