One aspect of “woke capitalism” that has never been exposed in the mainstream media is the “women on boards” scam, namely the claim that appointing more women to corporate boards would result in enhanced financial performance. The result of this scam has been a huge increase in the number of women on major corporate boards, the overwhelming majority as non-executive directors. In 2012 I presented evidence to House of Commons and House of Lords inquiries of the already well-established causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial DECLINE. The evidence is here: https://c4mb.uk/improving-gender-diversity-on-boards-leads-to-a-decline-in-corporate-performance-the-evidence/ I have often challenged high-profile proponents of “more women on boards” to provide evidence of a causal link with improved financial performance, and they’ve never come up with anything. The most recent challenges, last December, included challenges of Baroness Helena Morrissey, founder of The 30% Club in 2010, Tony Danker, the Director General of the CBI, and Professor Susan Vinnicombe: https://c4mb.uk/2022/12/14/women-on-boards-our-public-challenge-of-four-leading-proponents-2/ Mike Buchanan CAMPAIGN FOR MERIT IN BUSINESS

What is ‘the patriarchy’ and does it still exist in the UK today? The Barbie movie’s portrayal of the patriarchy and a world in which men have all the positions of power has triggered debate on social media around whether the UK is a patriarchal society. According to Barbie’s friend Ken, patriarchy is when “men on horses run everything”. According to history, Marxist scholars first described the patriarchy as a system that favoured men over women and characterised it as integral part of the capitalist system. Years later, in the 1970s, it became a focal point for feminist activists who campaigned for equal rights and representation for women. In Britain today, though, when many of the laws that gave more power to men have been overturned, is there still a system in place that gives men more power than women? Is the word useful? We explain the history of the phrase and fact-check the ways in which people across the debate measure gender equality.The odious Toxic Feminist of the Month barrister and feminist automaton Charlotte Proudman was given ridiculously more time to talk than Mike Bell of Equi-Law, and a feminist Cambrige professor, Lucy Delap, was thrown in for good measure. Long story short, the usual BBC feminist bias.

Equimundo: Center for Masculinities and Social Justice has worked internationally and in the US since 2011 to engage men and boys as allies in gender equality, promote healthy manhood, and prevent violence.Some idiocy from the page Our Core Values and Beliefs:
-
Relational nature of gender: We believe that questioning patriarchy – and finding shared and mutual interest in overcoming it – means working with women and girls, with men and boys, and with individuals of all gender identities, as allies and partners. We view patriarchy as creating and sustaining power inequalities by men collectively over women (including cis and trans women), as well as gender-nonconforming individuals, and by some groups of men over other marginalized men, and as a social force that keeps all individuals from having the connected, fulfilled, and peaceful lives they deserve. We view gender power and gender norms as constructed in relationships among individuals and reinforced by societies and structures, and we strive to work in ways that overcome the gender binary and achieve equality.
