'What would a sports car look like designed by a woman? It’s remarkably analogous to the world of sex toys... There's a new generation of @womenofsextech designing sex toys that do not in any way, shape or form resemble the penis.' @tamaratam@findlecarlecar.co/cars-and-peopl…
'I concur with @grok_..the future may well include some form of sex robotics. There is no reason on God's green earth why they have to have to be remotely human in shape. Same thing for cars. Women designing cars untrammeled by any old world expectations' lecar.co/cars-and-peopl…
'One woman, even if she's the lead designer, is totally subject to being overruled and talked over...an old white guy literally said to us, no, that's not what women want. That's what's going on with that one female lead designer.' @tamaratam@findlecarlecar.co/cars-and-peopl…
'If the automotive industry were only willing to accept reality then we'd have advertising campaigns overseen by women, directed by women, cast by women, created by women, produced by women. But we don't.' @tamaratam@findlecarlecar.co/cars-and-peopl…
'I love cars so much that at @BBHblacksheep the man who was running the @Audi account left to go to another agency and I went to Nigel Bogle and I asked for the account. I asked to be given the account to run. It went to a man.' @tamaratam@findlecarlecar.co/cars-and-peopl…
'People have sex in cars, especially in markets where premarital sex is frowned upon; where for sociocultural reasons, young people live at home till they get married; where households live together communally and husbands and wives can't find privacy' lecar.co/cars-and-peopl…
'All around the world, a huge number of people are having a huge amount of sex in a huge number of cars. And yet the automotive industry is spectacularly failing to factor this into product design and marketing.' @tamaratam@findlecarlecar.co/cars-and-peopl… #sextech#socialsex
'The pandemic has ensured the world will never be the same again. And that's a very good thing for those of us who were never the status quo to begin with.' I talk to @tamaratam@findlecar on why women need to design the automotive industry of the future lecar.co/cars-and-peopl…

OK folks, hold onto your hats - here we go, with my annual live-tweeting of my reading of @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue. What do we think we'll find this year? I'm guessing, what we find every year: #carefullycalibrateddiversity, lack of age/body diversity, appalling waste of celebrities, every ad looking pretty much the same as every other ad. Let's see, shall we? 🙂
Let's start with the cover. Obviously, when @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue decided on @blakelively as the cover, they had no idea she would be as much a part of The Discourse as she currently is. Separate to that, I continue to want to see cover women who aren't models or actresses, but powerful real world personalities
Occupying the prime @condenast @voguemagazine #SeptemberIssue inside cover/first DPS slots: @RalphLauren. As I say each year about RL, if you like this kind of thing, this is the kind of thing you like. The clothes are unremarkable, and the use of black and white makes them even more so.
Starting my annual live-tweeting of my reading of @condenast@voguemagazine#SeptemberIssue. Predictions: even MORE #CarefullyCalibratedDiversity; ageist fetishization of youth; huge amount of adspend wasted looking like everyone else; nothing's changing in fashion's old world
.@LancomeUSA forked out the $$$ to be the @condenast@voguemagazine inside cover foldout, running the same old Julia Roberts La Vie Est Belle ad they've run for years. What a waste of a huge-impact triple-spread that @LancomeFR could've done something really creative with
'I immediately checked out the site and I literally got goosebumps. @makelovenotporn seemed totally aligned with my ideals and beliefs around adult content in our society: that it should reflect consensual, mutually-enjoyable experiences' @tntannie_russmakelovenotporn.medium.com/coming-to-mlnp…
'@makelovenotporn is going to keep getting bigger and bigger. The investors who won’t invest in this venture are making a huge mistake. If I had the funds, I would jump on an opportunity like this.' From your mouth to investors' ears, @tntannie_russ 😍 makelovenotporn.medium.com/coming-to-mlnp…
Starting my annual ritual of live-tweeting my reading of the @CondeNast@voguemagazine#SeptemberIssue Predictions: even MORE Carefully Calibrated Diversity; ageist fetishization of youth; huge amount of adspend wasted looking like everyone else; the theme #newbeginnings won't be
Separate to the fact the cover is extraordinarily visually non-compelling, why models YET AGAIN, @condenast@voguemagazine? I want to see real world women on your cover, with real world bodies, real world age, real world achievements. Especially Black women #SeptemberIssue
Together with reading @zoescaman's post zoescaman.substack.com/p/mad-men-furi… watch the first 15 minutes of my 2017 @3PercentConf keynote, to understand why everything Zoe cites is the single biggest business issue facing the ad industry (and every other industry) today
In my @3PercentConf 2017 keynote I quoted @rtraister and continued, "Nor can we see the great ads those women would have created, the @cannes_lions they would have won, the agencies they would have started, the ad industry they would have transformed."
Ladies, re-upping this @RachelKrantz@bustle interview with me because you may find it useful. Also, remember that in addition to business and #diversityandinclusion consulting and speaking, I also do personal coaching 🙂 cindy@ifwerantheworld.com bustle.com/articles/12937…
'Consider that when you ask for a raise, you're not just helping yourself — you are also acting on behalf of other women by helping to close the pay gap'..."As women, we don’t get taken seriously until we get taken seriously financially." I talk to @bustlebustle.com/articles/12937…
'Gallop tells @bustle, "Very simply put, if you do not ask for a raise, and if you do not ask for the most money you can possibly make in your job, you will not be valued." @RachelKrantzbustle.com/articles/12937…
