My friend/colleague is launching a study that aims to look at the process of acculturation .
If you or someone you know is #SouthAsian and identifies as #male, please consider filling out this survey. Your responses bring to the forefront #research that can support #MentalHealth initiatives in our community.

The Far Right’s Campaign to Explode the Population >>
"The threat, we are told here this weekend, is existential, #biological, epoch-defining. Economies will fail, #civilizations will fall, and it will all happen because people aren’t having enough #babies.
“The entire global #financial system, the value of your money, and every #asset you might buy with money is defined by leverage, which means its value depends on growth...." >>
>> ...And to ensure that these #children grow up to be adults who understand their #proper place in both the #family and the larger #social order, we need to oust #women from the workforce and reinstitute #male-only spaces “where women are #disadvantaged as a result,” shampoo magnate and aspiring warlord Charles Haywood says, prompting cheers from the #men in the audience."
So unsurprising how conservative commentary about declining birth rates inevitably leads to #racism and #misogyny 🤷🏻♀️🙄
Male-defaultism in #archaeology is bloody annoying.
Just because someone draws a #hunting scene in a #cave, doesn't mean it was a man doing so or depicting one.
Every #archer grave from the Bell Beaker Era MUST be #male because even when they find #female additions, that just means she is related to a great man or the male lost status (of course).
Archaeologist Randy Haas just assumed he found a male big game hunter in Peru in 2013. Except he didn't.
This lovely #male#chaffinch was following me around #VictoriaPark this morning.
I tried explaining that I didn’t have any food but it’s almost like he didn’t understand… 🤷♂️
Selfies, 2005 03. Really mostly a reminiscence of that amazing studio space. The leaseholder made art of/about furniture and there were always a few interesting vintage pieces around.
How Many of Your State’s Lawmakers Are #Women?
If You Live in the #Southeast, It Could Be Just 1 in 5
A record number of women were elected to statehouses last year.
But in the Southeast, where some legislatures are more than 80% #male, representation is lagging as lawmakers pass bills that most impact women, like near-total #abortion bans.
I feel that most programming languages are #male: the #imperative#paradigm (do this, then do that) matches the stereotype of "man commanding". Object-oriented #OO paradigm, same thing. #Functional paradigm resembles an assembly line, also stereotypically male.
