Following the #FeministOpenGov tweets this week from the Open Government Partnership meeting in Ottawa - it's one of those "by gender they mean sex" things.When they talk about womens groups, womens issues this is about female peoplehttps://fogo.od4d.net/
But they go all round the houses not to say sex. Women are not female people but the product of "social and cultural construction of femininity in attitudes, norms, identities, ideologies and practice" (I know 
I have no idea if I qualify to be one or how you can tell?)pic.twitter.com/MF34klioBu
everything is referred to in relation to "genders". Sex doesn't get a look in. It jars because that's really what they are talking about: female people, not the extent to which people embody societal ideals of femininity. And it drains meaning from the analysis
The whole thing is about how "open government" (a top down initiative to make govt more transparent, accountable & participative) can really connect w citizen's concerns. But no one has asked women how they feel about being reclassified as constructions of femininity not a sex.
... its what Liz from Care said about gender consultant speak https://oxfamblogs.org/fp2p/a-rant-about-gender-and-other-consultants-and-how-we-can-avoid-them/ …. Adoption into gov policies has been profoundly undemoctratic.Lobbyists writing policy. Flawed consultations w precooked outcomes. Done deals.
Repression of dissent (these are UK examples https://twitter.com/Bodmassthe2nd/status/1090303243958341632?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw … ) The introduction of gender ideology has been the opposite of open government.
