JULIE BINDEL: Maria loved her job at Oxfam, but then stuck up for JK Rowling on a staff chatroom… cue a hate campaign and internal inquiry which destroyed her health and career

Our thanks to Groan for this article in yesterday’s Mail. He writes:
And just to confirm the point about the ideology being from the feminists. Within Julie Bindel’s latest attempt to paint trans ideology as against feminism and for “misogyny” her heroine, sacked from Oxfam, declares. ‘This will hang over me for the rest of my life. I want to work in women and children’s rights, but if I had to fight this again I would be going through the same trouble because the women’s sector is where this ideology is most prevalent.’ So decades of demonising men and boys and undermining traditional family life ends up standing up for men who want to be converted to women. Leaving all that toxic masculinity, patriarchal terrorism, manspreading etc. etc. behind. It’s the men hating nutters  themselves that spawned this as this quote points out. I also note considering she says she’s silenced we get to see Bindel in “print” a lot.

Ma. Aurora D. Geotina-Garcia: Is there a business case for Board Diversity?

Another day, another woman falsely claiming that appointing more women to corporate boards will improve profitability. Her article was published by BusinessWorld today. I registered with the publication then posted some comments, which haven’t yet appeared. I assume comments go automatically to moderators, and they won’t publish my comments. So here they are:
Complete nonsense. Corellation is not evidence of causation. In 2012 I presented to a House of Commons inquiry some of the then already copious literature showing a causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial DECLINE:
Increasing gender diversity on corporate boards leads to declines in financial performance: the evidence
I know of no studies showing a causal link with financial performance improvement. I’ve challenged many leading proponents of ‘more women on boards’ to show me studies indicating the causal link they claim, and not one has risen to the challenge. The reason for the correlation is probably that more profitable companies are more inclined (and able) to engage in social engineering exercises such as putting more women on their boards. When a beautiful young woman marries a much older rich man, we don’t claim that beautiful women make men rich, do we? Mike Buchanan CAMPAIGN FOR MERIT IN BUSINESS
