Thanks for that. A few other things that is worth noting.
* There is an excellent journal article by Joanne Baker, "The ideology of choice.
Overstating progress and hiding injustice in the lives of young women: Findings from a
study in North Queensland, Australia"
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S027753950700088X
"The implications of an invigorated conservative,
masculinist agenda disguised in a women's rights discourse are discussed." (pp.
53)
* The Social Network was produced by Kevin Spacey / Dana Brunetti's Trigger Street
Productions who I've mentioned before
https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/gendergap/2014-June/004388.html
(their website Trigger Street Labs, whose message boards allowed all kinds of sexism to go
by unchecked, is to close down this month
http://labs.triggerstreet.com/ ). They have also
co-produced Fifty Shades of Grey which is due out on Valentine's Day

* It might be worth getting statistics on female v male editors likelihood of exiting talk
page discussions once their views are challenged.
* Come to think of it, it might be worth getting statistics on female v male editors
likelihood of having a request for mediation rejected.
