Hmm, ok. They would have 'men' (reading of Equality Act) as members, though, but yeah, maybe this would count as some form of gender-based discrimination then... Anyways, I would have liked to see them fighting back and bringing it to court. 💔

But why is it important to them to be a 'single-sex service'? Couldn't they just say that their club is for exactly those people who have a certain gender identity? (As other organizations are for people who are golf players or whatever?)

I don't get it. So WI thinks they are 'forced' to do this because WI is an organization exclusively for women, and 'women', under equalities law, must mean 'female sex', yes? But couldn't WI just change their membership conditions to also include people who identify as women??

How to stop the revolving door of German academia
Germany is one of the most popular destinations for students and scholars worldwide, but those pursuing academic careers face significant hurdles to success.
German academia: great place to work? You should think twice before giving it a try: Permanent positions are very rare, most scholars have to drop out after some precarious years. @dianakwon.bsky.social has written a great piece about this for @nature.com and also talked to yours truly. #IchBinHanna

(I'm interested in the question of what feminist philosophy is, or how we should define it, which is why I'm asking.)

Serious question: do you think Stock is a feminist philosopher (in any serious sense of the term) -- just a very bad one?

Trans People Deserve Better
"Gender critical" feminism doesn't help women but it does help the far right
This piece was greenlit and then killed by a British newspaper, so I’ve decided to publish myself instead.

Exklusiv | In der Fördergeldaffäre um Ahmad Mansour springt ihm nun die Ethnologin Susanne Schröter publizistisch zur Seite. Sie gibt die neutrale Beobachterin.
Interne Dokumente zeigen jedoch: Auch sie sollte von den rund 9 Millionen Euro für Mansours Projekt profitieren. 1/x

Diese Aussage illustriert leider exakt das Problem, das @ndeitelhoff.bsky.social adressiert: Sie markiert einen parteipolitischen Besitzanspruch auf ein Förderverfahren, das eigentlich wissenschaftsgeleitet und wettbewerblich sein sollte. Ausgerechnet seitens der FDP.

Philosophie als Männerfach?
Wie ein psychologisches Forschungsprojekt über Genderstereotype in der Philosophie neue Impulse für eine inklusivere Fachkultur gibt –
Von Sibylle Schmid
"Die Intervention [kann]...das Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit [zur] Philosophie...signifikant steigern. Besonders wirksam ist der Effekt bei Studierenden, die sich stark an gemeinschaftlichen Werten orientieren...Die positiven Effekte...könnten...für Studentinnen besonders bedeutsam sein." #philsky
