If you haven't seen the video where men read horrible tweetssentto female sportscasters, we're going to tell you all about it.Andthen we'll pull out our woman cards. Never heard of them?Neitherhave we. But Trump tells us it's a sneaky thing we've hadaccess tofor generations and have used to become the strongestforce in theworld. If you believe that load of cow paddies, thenyou should readsome of Ross Putman's tweets. He's a Hollywoodproducer who postslines from some of the more ridiculouslygendered scripts he getshanded.
Thankfully, there is some good news from the internets,namelyEtsy's efforts to balance out their gender diversity.
And the BEST news on the internet this week has to be thePrincessAwesome clothing line for little girls who love dresseswith carsand math stamped all over them.

This has been one of those weeks where you can learn a lot about

Or how a Winnipeg mom's choice to let her kids play in her

Here's hoping The Freelancers Union's LONGEST

And also that this brilliant video from Argentinian charity

You know what happens when gamers are arbitrarily assigned female characters? Well, they certainly didn't thank the makers of RUST who did just that.

An endeavour that is getting a lot of support is The Guardian's subsite dedicated to confronting cyber-bullying called ‘THE WEB WE WANT.’
And if you want an example of why such a site is neccessary, we'll tell you about a PEI reporter who got taken to task on social media for wearing red lipstick. No, seriously.

And we've got two new tooltips specific to podcasts this week - Google Play, which has just introduced Podcasts to its directory and Clammr, which we are experimenting with to do 24s promos.

First, we talk about The GAP ad that’s got people all aflutter on social media and then we look at the dismal stats around speaker diversity at Tech-related events in Toronto.
On the Uber-side, we are getting excited for this new app called Chariot for Women (though we're not loving the name).
We peek into the SCANDAL (ha ha!) around Kerry Washington’s unrecognizable ADWEEK cover and how can we not talk about the REDDIT thread that called women "The Hitlers of Sex.” No, seriously.

We ruminate on whether there really is a problem with technology designed primarily by men for men, and the American Medical Association study that says yes. Then we turn to gender-based emojis and a body positive underwear campaign for men.
Speaking of color, our tooltip of the week is a new app that hides an applicant’s details to eliminate unconscious bias in hiring.
And we have some thoughts about the #UnFairandLovely hashtag that’s trending on Instagram and the new UberPitch app.

Winnipeg's Amy Tuckett-McGimpsey and Allison Ferry attack sexist dress codes because at some Canadian restaurants, you are still required to dress like you're going to the club if you're a waitress. We talk about a teacher who was forced to resign because of her naked selfie and the quick end to Land's End's Legends program.
Did you know that women had trouble with rectangles? Neither did we, but a new phone start-up is designing circular phones for confused females we have never met.
Speaking of circular problems, RBS is experimenting with an AI customer service pilot project that really could do no worse than what they have now.
Wikipedia just noticed that a lot of their millions of pages have never felt the touch of a woman, much like many of the editors of Wikipedia.

This is a special episode we recorded on Tuesday, March 8th with guest Gini Dietrich @ginidietrich and surprise guest Bob LeDrew @bobledrew (we had planned to have Elan Morgan @schmutzie join us too but the technology failed her).

Chris Rock's monologue for the 80th Academy Awards was all about the #WhiteOscars hashtag, and we loved it. And one solution Hollywood might want to look into is the Rent-a-Minority website, made for employers who "are racist, but don't want to look racist." 

Ok, it's a satirical website, but we think it makes an interesting statement.

Speaking of interesting statements, Toronto's own Maayan Ziv has created an app that crowdsources accessible spots in different cities -- it's called ACCESS NOW.

And another app that has our attention is the PartPic which is like Shazam for parts you might need. Just take a picture and it identifies the part and helps you find a replacement.

Podcamp Toronto was a blast as always, and our panel on Women in Podcasting generated some awesome discussion — we grabbed a few members of the audience for some quick audio clips.

The University of Waterloo is offering some free computer science courses that we think people should be paying attention to.

The Crunchies welcomed some diverse members of the Slack team to accept the fastest-rising start-up award, and a recent report seems to indicate that in blind taste tests, the code written by women outshines similar code written by men.

And Hijarbie Barbie is showing some style on Instagram.
