Or maybe it’s about being half of one (woman weak/men strong, women emotional/men logical, women talkative/men taciturn, women socially oriented/men independent, etc.).

I apologize for making that sweeping statement without attaching the context. It was in an image instead of text and I got lazy.
In the context, it refers to the inherently lazy complaint of “lonely” men who can’t be bothered to put in the most basic work to build relationships, and instead want to be provided with companionship.

The data backs her up: The Muse’s 2024 Women’s Workplace Experience Report found that 42% of women have encountered gender-biased or inappropriate questions during the hiring process, with C-suite women facing it at even higher rates.
“These questions aren’t driven by true curiosity, they’re about bias in disguise and they often stem from narrow definitions of leadership and rigid assumptions about what success looks like,” Eonnet said. “If we want to build inclusive organizations, we have to interrogate not just what’s being asked but why it’s still being asked in the first place.”

And this sort of shame still exists, though I am glad Ms. Hargitay now absolved of hers.

Although so-called reborn babies have been available on the market for years, only this month for some reason, the country saw a sudden surge of interest in these hyper-realistic dolls. Some demagogic congressmen even proposed laws to prevent the dolls from being brought into public hospitals (although no one has ever heard of such a case), Another one proposed huge fines for those who use reborn babies to skip lines at banks and supermarkets, and in Rio de Janeiro, a councilor created the day of the reborn stork. I believe that all this fuss was amplified by the fact that this is a hobby that mostly involves women.

Yeah, like it takes a high level of coding to use AI…
“The current trend in the adoption of AI tools appears to mirror this disparity, as the skills required for AI are rooted in Stem disciplines.”

It’s because women my age were purged from the tech jobs shortly before ai became the norm.
And why would you go back to work in that field to compete against boys with AI in a hateful misogynistic climate if you could retire or do literally anything else and get enough money to get by. I sure as fuck don’t want to. Hope I never have to. Meanwhile girls have been driven out of tech jobs since forever no matter what the Internet says.
We discourage girls from even going to school now, but two decades ago was not the feminist utopia some children of the internet seem to believe.
Tbh ai replaced women most likely in the first place.

Yep. Dudes decided it was a “prestige job” now so the women in the field had to go… But of course, it takes no special skills to us AI anyway, certainly not a deep well of STEM knowledge or whatever the fuck.
I’m kind of sick of people making AI out to be some magical thing that needs all these skills… it’s just not. Women who are avoiding (like myself) are smart enough to know it’s crap.

Honestly it doesn’t even require much intelligence imo. I wrote music also. Writing music is objectively harder and requires stronger interpersonal skills both to advocate for and improve ones work but is perceived as less smart than coding.
Both I guess are being replaced by ai.

I think most of us are just waiting for it to blow up in techbro’s faces. 
Once they’re no longer able to rely on AI and robots to help them think and cope with life (or pretend that’s really working out well for them 
), we’ll be perfectly positioned to charge top dollar for offering common sense solutions. Maybe we need a union, crone collective, or coven…
