The Babbling Beaver: “MIT French queer theory professor Bruno Perreau invents intrasectionality.”

These “academics” are all as mad as March hares. Their output can best be described, as in this article, as “word salads”.

Six candidates in line to replace Lord Mandelson as US Ambassador – and the shock Labour name that will raise eyebrows

Interesting. Three of the candidates are married white heterosexual men with kids, so there is close to zero chance that Two-Tier Kier – “2TK” – will appoint any of them as the next US Ambassador – James Roscoe, Sir Mark Sedwill and Sir Richard Moore. The fourth man is the gormless David Lammy. From his Wikipedia entry:

“Lammy had previously [J4MB: Before the attempted assassination of Donald Trump in 2024.] been critical of Donald Trump, calling him “a tyrant” and “a woman-hating, neo-Nazi-sympathising sociopath” in 2018.” [J4MB: Early in Trump’s first term as US president, 2017-21.]

Lammy is evidently a born diplomat…

The first of the two women is Julia Longbotton, 62, a career diplomat, and The Donald is averse to career diplomats. The second is Barbara Woodward, 64, currently Permanent Representative of the United Kingdom to the United Nations.

Just 9% of Chief Executive and Chairperson positions in financial services sector held by women

More of the usual whingeing. Our thanks to Jeff for this. What can we say in response? Perhaps:

Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.

An extract from the press release:

“Given recently reported research by EY that women account for 45% of people
sitting on the boards of the UK’s top listed banks, asset managers, fintech companies
and insurance firms, the data suggests that women who do rise to senior levels within
financial services firms are more likely to hold non-executive positions (which
typically do not have internal management responsibilities) than be the key
decision-makers.”

Well, that’s a relief, at least. We wouldn’t want women to be “key decision-makers”, would we, given their dire track record on company boards? They’re better suited to well-paid cushy unnecessary positions without “internal management responsibilies”. That said, even as NEDs they have (predictably) a negative impast on corporate financial performance, as Campaign for Merit in Business has been highlighting since 2012. The evidence of a causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial decline is here.

We wouldn’t expect a (male) soccer team to be improved by the inclusion of female players, would we? To expect otherwise is as ridiculous and laughable (let’s just admit it, as silly) as expecting companies to perform better with the inclusion of more women on their boards. Which is why we have a related website, Laughing at Feminists.
