“I was aware of this bias so I made a conscious effort to not give anyone the chance to label me “crazy”. By being tough & unemotional, I was not acting ‘like a man’..the opposite. My male colleagues emoted like crazy" @NellSco@JessRapana@StylistMagazinestylist.co.uk/life/emotion-w…
More evidence (not that we needed it). Men, DON'T DO THIS TO US: 'Yesterday I received a series of messages from a man I don’t know, responding to an article I’d shared about men being emotional in the workplace.
'He told me that I irritated him. That I was amplifying sensationalism and the only reason he was messaging me privately is because he didn’t want to publicly give my opinions any oxygen.' @keano81@LinkedInlinkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
'He also said he’s looking for a job & didn’t want to make himself look bad by berating me publicly. So he slipped into my DMs to do it instead! This is unacceptable. I replied with this. From now on this will be my reply to men who...' @keano81@LinkedInlinkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Today's @makelovenotporn email from a man:
'Like many males, I used to visit typical porn sites, but it didn’t take long for me to tire of them, to the point that I stopped visiting such sites for years. And then I came across your site via @followcrave. I couldn't believe...
'..my luck – @makelovenotporn was exactly what I had been hoping to find for so long. Your site is brilliant – it’s real, and I am utterly grateful for it! I am positive MLNP can only grow and continue to get better and better. Frankly, I like to pay for what I get from MLNP...
'..the people who give me such pleasure deserve to be paid for their generous offerings. I almost feel guilty for buying your 61 one-year rents for $61! I wish I had thousands of $ to invest in @makelovenotporn. I think that your idea will one day be considered a massive...
Re @BurgerKing: years ago I was hired by A Very Big Company to review some advertising they were planning to run targeting women as part of their #DiversityAndInclusion program. I was clear upfront that I was not going to 'rubber stamp' their advertising, and that I would only...
take the job if they agreed to act on whatever I recommended - which they committed to. They showed me the ad. I said to them, I want to see the list of the creatives and crew behind the ad, but even without having seen it, I know this ad was written by white men. (It was.) ...
I knew that because it was a 'clever' ad that those men would have congratulated themselves on. I said to the client, this ad is 'cleverly' dramatizing the problem. (Career obstacles for women.) We live with the problem every day. We don't need the problem hammered home to us. ..
'We write about the brilliance of women in marketing, but top marketer lists are often dominated by men. We speak of how woke we are, then celebrate International Women’s Day by running a campaign proclaiming that women belong in the kitchen.' @jpcastlinmarketingweek.com/burger-king-co…
Every brand marketer, agency leader, ECD needs to read this and learn from it. '“90% of women say in surveys they don’t consider advertising relevant to them, which isn't surprising when it’s made by a male-dominated industry,“ says Cindy Gallop.' @TheDrumthedrum.com/news/2021/03/1…
Women are the target for advertising, because we are the primary purchasers. “Brand marketers must mandate that any agency pitching for, appointed to and working on their business, must have gender-equal leadership,” insists Gallop' @flaming_meaux@thedrumthedrum.com/news/2021/03/1…
'At every point in the creative, production & distribution process, Gallop argues agencies should be gender-equal...if agencies have a diverse workforce w strong female leadership, you wouldn’t need to rely on regulations, says @BiGuimaraess@mischief_usa' thedrum.com/news/2021/03/1…
WE LOVE @markpollard! 'Gentlemen of @LinkedIn, do you find yourself drawn to women's opinions? Do you find yourself captivated by the scent of women's brains? Do you find women's points of view magnetic and impossible to not correct?' linkedin.com/posts/markpoll… via @VikkiRossWrites
'You might have correctile dysfunction. It's when you open your mouth, tap on your keyboard, or thumb on your phone immediate and condescending corrections of women's opinions.' @markpollard@LinkedIn linkedin.com/posts/markpoll…

"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…
