Outstanding article, Fiona!
Profound , ambitious, actionable - big fan of your work. Your writing seems so personal and effecting. I am bookmarking this as I'd like to refer back to it multiple times, there's so much to taken in! Did you take long to put it together?
As outlined in Caroline Perez's excellent "Inisible Women", women do 75% of the global unpaid work. Women have always worked (paid and unpaid) but the traditional workplace hasn’t worked for women. It is tailored to an unencumbered worker, i.e., the male default. Because seeing humans as men is the default.
I'd appreciate your feedback on my article as I think it's a data-driven companion piece to your wonderful writing, do let me know what you think!
