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.

New Feminist Blog and Nifty Database

Category: Naming ExperienceResources
Posted on: May 24, 2007 4:44 PM, by Zuska

There's a great post over at the blog Women in Science on a resource, the Harvard Open Collections Program Women Working 1800-1930.

...a great digital database of books, photos, diaries, and trade catalogs. It covers all kinds of work, from unpaid household labor to lawyers and politicians. And, of course, scientists.

Go read the post for a sampling of goodies from the collection. Many thanks to Women in Science for pointing us all to this rich archive!

Also, from the WMST-L listserv, I learned of a new Feminist Philosophers blog . This is not a philosophy of science blog, it's subject matter is wide-ranging, but I still thought it might be of interest to some readers here.

Two more websites that feature women, and aren't porn! Yay!
