Study (N=1,026) finds when engineers believed code was written w/ AI assistance, they rated the coder competence 13% lower if the coder was a woman vs 6% if a man. Male non-adopters of AI rated women coders 26% more harshly than men for the same AI usage.https://t.co/IeALTWxiRD

The issue of gendered academic service work in academic isn't new or anything revelatory but everytime such a study is done we treat it with surprise and then forget about it.

Yes we know women bear the burden of emotional labour in workplaces because of cultural and social gendered norms and the assumptions that women are more nurturing, more organised, just better at it. They tend to do more of the unpaid invisible labour which takes time away from essential tasks that are better rewarded in academia.

I wrote about it in my book SWAY (and cover in many of my talks for academic institutions) on how students assume more help and support from women academics too.

I have also written extensively about this in my book HYSTERICAL and in this article --->

Perhaps it is time to do something concrete about it rather than just do more research studies showing the same thing again and again.

How does it feel to be nervous in the workplace, John? Ask women- they have tales to tell you.

do straight men actually like women?

Ending all my meetings by saying "bye ladies!" regardless of the gender of folks in the room. Not sure what the big deal is. I just think that the term ladies, colloquially, is a gender-neutral term.
