- Hillary Clinton quoting sociologist @JessicaCalarco“Other countries have social safety nets; the U.S. has women.” nytimes.com/2020/11/17/ups…
- International students. Your faculty are with you. So are the universities. Ask for workarounds this evil policy. We are smarter than ICE. Expect to be protected. This is our job as faculty and administrators.
- Replying to @davidmdraimanthe youngest is 19, I think they are deserving of the adult label of women...
- Replying to @Amy_Siskindmarch for science! April 22nd. Everywhere!
- So honored to have learned that I’ve been awarded the Southern Sociological Society ‘s 2019 Distinguished Lectureship Award.
- This is a GREAT idea!Family friendly study rooms in university libraries are genius! Shout out to @SalemState for supporting students, faculty, and staff who take care of children. I hope other universities and organizations follow their lead! @MosaicIU #activelearning @DCBPhDV2 @johnstonjulie1
- There is no such thing as "sex with underage women." Underage women are girls who cannot legally consent. Why doesn't the NYTimes (and other papers) write the truth, Sex with underage women is really raping girls.
- The attack on Dr. Cross is outrageous. In my qualitative research project, I have a boilerplate methods paragraph I insist all the authors use when describing the data collection process. It's the same data, I don't want it described differently in different articles!
- Anyone else too terrified to work?
- We all knew it was coming. And yet I can’t stop crying. Women have lost full citizenship in the US, we no longer have a right to control our own bodies. And that is a prerequisite for even imaging in a world with gender justic and equality….
- Replying to @amandadeibertMy grandmother was a jewish mail order bride from the old country in the early 20th Century. Got here, didn’t fancy the guy. Went to work in a factory to pay him back. Lived happily ever after.
- Thrilled! Since our team @Gend_Soc began in 2020, impact factor has jumped from 3.7 to 5.5! Even better, we went #21 (of 149) sociology journals to being #7! We jumped 14 places in the rankings in 3 years. Moved to #2 from #3 in Women's Studies. See next tweet in thread...
- “Ugly is everything done to you in the name of Beauty” @tressiemcphd THICK. Read it and swim in beauty of the language
