Women could not get business loans without a male co-signer until 1988!!!

Note: “nearly 90% of female targeted financial articles advised women to cut back on their spending. You can see connections to diet culture here, with women constantly being told that they naturally tend toward excess and that they need to restrict and restrain themselves in order to stay small and be good.”

Reading this for work! Wish she was more clear about what is a human thing vs what is a woman thing, especially when she talks about “typical women” and being “emotional.” Men are so emotional! All humans are emotional. Which I think the author would agree with, but I wish she would clarify that in the text.
