‘Centuries of male-dominated cultures, processes and policies need to be shaken up. I’m not blaming men here. It’s a historical situation that has evolved over time and today the priority is about levelling up the playing field.’
Joy Burnford’s book, Don’t Fix Women, is reviewed in The Globe and Mail
