I can't stop you claiming the word movement is exclusive. You put it in scare quotes, so you obviously dislike it. But it's unfounded IMHO.

Feminism is a movement. And membership is just about if you believe sexism exists. Maybe you think movement and gatekeeping go hand in hand?
-
If it has membership, it is a club. A club you may call a movement but still a club. Clubs are typically (or by definition?) exclusive.
-
I'm a feminist cos I believe in equality. I am an "open scientist" cos I believe openness improves science. Not interested in joining a club
-
A movement can be passive like a tidal wave sweeping across the land. I am probably part of that surge but I didn't "join" it.
-
And the way I see it the problem is not that the wave is too white & male but that the entire ocean is. Change that & the wave only grows.

You're wrong. That's not what happens in other areas of opennes. Tech has more women than open source.https://www.wired.com/2017/06/diversity-open-source-even-worse-tech-overall/ …

Is there evidence it is true for open science or just conjecture? I'd say my network of open science folks is about 50% women.
-
But that's beside the point. Like a famous OS person said, sometimes I'm wrong. You & I don't disagree about the data but about the solution
