@OtherSociology It's just rubbish. These movements seem to be top heavy with sneery old white males...a bit like academia? Not. Interested.
@Dr_Mel_Thomson Agreed it's the same as academia. Berating women into being silent about inequality to maintain #MaleWhitePrivilege.

@OtherSociology I refused to be 'shooshed' by anyone. Lots of people (all genders) find me bossy, aggressive. But some admire me. Mixed bag. -
@Dr_Mel_Thomson Would those same people find male counterpart to be bossy or aggressive? No. Just means you're a leader who knows her worth. -
@OtherSociology (2/2) But now that I am back in Oz, a country that celebrates those willing to openly call out issues, they make me stabby. -
@Dr_Mel_Thomson Language used to police women is infuriating! Speak up; you're too abrasive. Be "nice" & it's your fault you're not promoted
