Egalité salariale entre hommes et femmes : La France est 129e mondiale
Today, much of the inequality appears to affect women’s political empowerment, for which France ranks 63rd, just beneath Ethiopia. Economic opportunity for French women is similarly low, particularly on wage equality, on which France ranks a stunning 129th in the world. According to the World Economic Forum’s global survey, France is the absolute worst in…

Doxing, anonymat et libre parole : le cas Violentacrez
La semaine dernière, un utilisateur de Reddit a été «outé» par un journaliste de Gawker comme étant Violentacrez, un utilisateur à la tête de plusieurs sous-forums «Pas Safe Pour le Boulot» du site. Un sub-reddit en particulier publiait des photos de femmes sans leur consentement. Last Wednesday afternoon I called Michael Brutsch. He was at…

Molly
I think Molly is a really great actor and she was really coming at it from the inside out, as opposed to just applying a silly wig and saying, I’m doing this character. But I also think she had a fearlessness. She’d just set her scene up and say, I want the chairs like that.…

Les nonnes et la psychothérapie
Un groupe de chercheurs ont travaillé en 1966 avec un couvent, pour étudier les effet d’une libération personnelle par la psychothérapie sur une communauté fermée. Les résultats ont été radicaux, mais pas si surprenant que ça. La parole libstère. C’est bon de s’en souvenir, à l’heure où on entend tellement de psys à la con…

L’enfer sur terre
In the years after the invasion, the security situation deteriorated for everyone in the country. But for sexual minorities, Iraq became hell on earth. By 2007, political and religious groups backed by militiamen launched what we believe was an organised, co-ordinated campaign to hunt, arrest, torture and kill everyone they perceived as gay. These radical…

La nuit des femmes
Imaginez le tableau: en 1978, 3000 femmes marchent ensemble, dans la nuit de San Francisco, envahissent les trottoirs, s’engagent dans tous les chemins de traverse, y compris les petites ruelles que jusqu’ici elles évitaient avec angoisse, comme s’il fallait qu’aucune rue de cette ville menaçante ne pose plus de limite à leur désir de libération…

Lisa Marie Ayotte et Obama
At a 2010 bill signing for a law strengthening sexual assault laws, a rape survivor named Lisa Marie Ayotte was supposed to introduce the president, but she broke down at the podium and grew too emotional to speak. Obama strode out before his cue, placed a reassuring hand on her back and stood with her…

The Newsroom : du sexisme et de la technophobie
Aaron Sorkin was on “Fresh Air” Monday afternoon, and he told Terry Gross that he “like[s] writing about heroes [who] don’t wear capes or disguises. You feel like, ‘Gee, this looks like the real world and feels like the real world — why can’t that be the real world?’” Yes, a fantasy land where male…

The liminal phase
She didn’t sleep with scuzzy car guy just because she was desperate for the stability. She slept with him because she’s in a liminal phase. Liminalty is the scary in-between times in our lives, the weird time when we’re not who we used to be but we’re not quite who we’re going to be. Joan’s…
