"We all watch porn. We don't talk about it. When you force an entire industry into the shadows, you make it a lot easier for bad things to happen, and you make it very difficult for good things to happen." Listen to me and @NickKristof on @NPR@TheTakeawaywnycstudios.org/podcasts/takea…
"Our parents bring us up to have good manners, work ethic, sense of responsibility, accountability: nobody ever brings us up to behave well in bed." I talk to @NPR@thetakeaway about how to end rape culture as showcased on Pornhub @tanzinavega@nickkristofwnycstudios.org/podcasts/takea…
"In bed, values like empathy; sensitivity; generosity; kindness; honesty; respect, are as important, as those values are in every other area of our lives, where we're actively taught to exercise them" Me on ending rape culture on @NPR@TheTakeawaywnycstudios.org/podcasts/takea…#sextech
"The only way you end rape culture is by doing what I and @makelovenotporn are attempting to do: embed in society an openly talked-about, promoted and importantly aspired-to gold standard of what are good sexual values & good sexual behavior." @TheTakeawaywnycstudios.org/podcasts/takea…
"The issue isn't porn, but that we don't talk about sex in the real world. We have to do that openly and honestly, to encourage social standards of good sexual values and behavior, to get everybody to understand how we should all be operating around sex." wnycstudios.org/podcasts/takea…

You end racism in business by hiring, welcoming & promoting Black talent, bc then you PAY Black talent & channel wealth to Black households. This esp needs to happen in #crypto, where wealth needs to spread beyond white men. But: @coinbase@nathanielpoppernytimes.com/2020/11/27/tec…
'Much of @Coinbase’s culture stems from the one around #Bitcoin..which..has attracted a generation of fans known as “#crypto bros.” Many have propagated a brash male-dominated way of life, facing criticism for sowing racism and sexism.' @nathanielpoppernytimes.com/2020/11/27/tec…
Earlier this month I spoke to the women of Chief. The video is for members only, but here are the highlights: Leveling Up In A Man's World chief.com/brief/cindy-ga… I want you to reorientate your view of the system, operate pragmatically within the system, and reinvent the system
Reorientate your view: read @drtcp, who 'argues that we focus quite rightly on the huge number of barriers that are faced by brilliant women, but a far bigger problem is the lack of obstacles for incompetent men. And that is absolutely the issue.' chief.com/brief/cindy-ga…
'The reason women leaders led more effectively through COVID is nothing to do with touchy-feely female 'empathy', but because in order to get to the top, those women have had to go through so much shit. Sexism, racism, bias, sexual harassment.' chief.com/brief/cindy-ga…
'The only way real change will happen is when there is an eight-figure problem when the agencies are on the verge of losing business, or when clients are willing to fire agencies for failing to diversify their workforce.' Anonymous to @seb_joseph@Digidaydigiday.com/media/real-cha…
I've said for years the only thing that will make holding companies/agencies embrace diversity is total fucking disaster. 'One creative strategist has decided to sue an agency network for racial discrimination and wants others to do the same.' @Digidaydigiday.com/media/real-cha…
'Many of the comments were filled with derision, marginalization and even outright hate directed at the female subject. Comments from professional men whose pictures, names and places of work were visible for everyone to see.' @kfiore@FastCompany fastcompany.com/90560407/this-…
.@sarahkendzior called it back in 2015. 'Every country that becomes a dictatorship started with a chorus of people saying, "It can't happen here." It can happen anywhere.' @AnandWritesthe.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'It's bizarre to me people critique "alarmism" without defining it. If you describe a threat & give evidence to support why you believe there is a threat, you are not an alarmist in a pejorative sense. You are a realist sounding the alarm.' @sarahkendziorthe.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
'I think the fact that I got every major thing right is less interesting than the question of why all the people who got nearly everything wrong still have jobs.' @sarahkendzior@anandwritesthe.ink/p/sarah-kendzi…
"Too many companies have this misguided thought that hiring disabled people is fundamentally charitable. You're doing it out of the kindness of your heart. That's absolute fucking bollocks." I talk to @Chad_Sowash@joelcheesman HR's Most Dangerous Podcast podcasts.apple.com/jo/podcast/cin…
"Every company should be falling over themselves to hire disabled people, because that is how you give yourselves a competitive business advantage." I talk to @chad_sowash@joelcheesman in Part 2 of my HR's Most Dangerous Podcast interview: podcasts.apple.com/jo/podcast/cin…#Diversity
"Disabled people are some of the most ingenious, brilliant and creative people you'll ever hire, because, as @elizejackson puts it, "We have to hack life every single day."I talk to @chad_sowash@joelcheesman Part 2 HR's Most Dangerous Podcast interview: podcasts.apple.com/jo/podcast/cin…
