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.

Let's Get Nominating, People!

Category: Call For ProposalsPositive Actions
Posted on: May 24, 2007 6:50 PM, by Zuska

Please don't forget to nominate posts for the 2007 Science Blogging Anthology. I've added an icon to the left sidebar that you can click on (it's the blue "Open Lab 2007" bit just below "nominate posts for") to go to the very easy, very short nomination form. Let's make sure that this year there are some posts on women and science, some posts from women science bloggers, in the anthology.

Bora tells me that nary a single post in those categories has been nominated since I made my original plea a week ago. Everybody too busy with end of the semester? And now Memorial Day weekend is coming up. But after that? You'll nominate posts? You promise me? Good.
