As David Akin, who supplies the photo, tweets: "the gang's all here!"
My initial reaction, over three tweets: "Gawd! All but 2 r women. Ya know, it makes me feel so excluded, always has since a tot. So sick of suits in our elite instns. If you're young & female, it's even worse. All those greyheads in upper tiers of biz, gov, unis. All men, w/ only the rare token female."
This gross non-representation made me feel sick as a kid, and it still does. Soothing words to mollify, that "at least the situation has improved" only make me more angry.
How much longer must females wait to be properly represented in our society?
It won't happen in my lifetime, as it hasn't for the lifetimes of women before me.
