“There is no such thing as a woman who doesn’t work. There is only a woman who isn’t paid for her work.”
Caroline Criado-Perez, Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men

Caroline Criado Pérez
“The result of this deeply male-dominated culture is that the male experience, the male perspective, has come to be seen as universal, while the female experience--that of half the global population, after all--is seen as, well, niche.”
Caroline Criado-Pérez, Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men

Caroline Criado Pérez
“Whiteness and maleness are silent precisely because they do not need to be vocalized. Whiteness and maleness are implicit. They are unquestioned. They are the default. And this reality is inescapable for anyone whose identity does not go without saying, for anyone whose needs and perspective are routinely forgotten. For anyone who is used to jarring up against a world that has not been designed around them.”
Caroline Criado Perez, Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men

Caroline Criado Pérez
“One of the most important things to say about the gender data gap is that it is not generally malicious, or even deliberate. Quite the opposite. It is simply the product of a way of thinking that has been around for millennia and is therefore a kind of not thinking. A double not thinking, even: men go without saying, and women don't get said at all. Because when we say human, on the whole, we mean man.”
Caroline Criado Perez, Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men
