15. It was one thing to know that the world is designed for men. It was another to read this book and be hit so hard! Please pick this up, to truly understand the gender divide.      source

What an extraordinary book: INVISIBLE WOMEN: DATA BIAS IN A WORLD DESIGNED FOR MEN by Caroline Criado Perez. Not only is it informative and actionable, but it is a peerless revelation of how deep our sexism runs. (God alone knows how many copies I’ve given away.)      source

Been thinking about @CCriadoPerez’s book a lot recently, about how we live in a world designed for men. My personal favourite: This is the pot they expect you to be able to wee in at 36 weeks pregnant..      source

First of all, if you are a man who works with data in any capacity, or say, interacts with other people at all, ever, read this book. It’s fun, promise!      source
