Discovered Mark Zuckerberg promoting this feminist man hating crap on Facebook.

"When a little boy asserts himself, he's called a “leader.” Yet when a little girl does the same, she risks being branded “bossy.” Words like bossy send a message: don't raise your hand or speak up. By middle school, girls are less interested in leading than boys—a trend that continues into adulthood. Together we can encourage girls to lead."
Rubbish, both boys and girls receive ridicule for asserting themselves. And it's clear from education results that boys are falling far behind girls - but we conveniently ignore these facts.
"By middle school, girls are less interested in leading than boys"
Girls are also less interested than boys in a lot of things, including leadership. Just because they aren't interested doesn't mean it's automatically because of harassment or social stereotypes or that they are being victimised. They are looking for victims where there are none, and trying to propel women as leaders when that isn't necessary. Many women can be great leaders, we just don't need a quota system for this as the good ones will achieve regardless.
