Today marks 28 years since the École Polytechnique massacre, when a young gunman entered a Montréal college and killed fourteen women, most of them engineering students, saying "I hate feminists."

The attack—our deadliest, as far as I know—led to strengthened gun control laws and a national movement against violence against women.

Today we remember the victims.

Hello Mastonauts, since I know many people on here are not Canadian, I should explain why today, #Dec6, is a nationwide day against femicide and other forms of violence against women.

Hey s.coop, just a reminder that this weekend there is a group call to discuss a #codeofconduct!

CYBER COUNTERMEASURES

#SexingtheBody / #DelusionsofGender: both Cordelia Fine and Anne Fausto-Sterling cite studies demonstrating that young children first learn to distinguish gender through social markers (clothing, colours, occupations, gendered concepts like "rough/soft") before associating it with body parts, and before learning that body parts are permanent.
