"a 2010 Design Council survey shows a 60/40 male/female gender ratio in the industry - although crucially it’s unclear what the ratio is at more senior levels.
But anecdotally it’s clear that whatever the situation with open discrimination, a more invidious inequality is still rife, both in design and in other sectors.
One of the main issues is pay. A report from the Chartered Management Institute last year showed that, on average, male manager-level employees were paid more than £10 500 more than their female counterparts. It seems almost unthinkable that nearly 40 years after the Equal Pay Act came into force in the UK, the pay divide could be this wide."
- Figures can be misleading. If women take time off for children they earn less. At least I hope that is the case.Chimp

Misogyny and the Marketing Chick

Design chicks in their free time usually enjoy the following in no specific order: crochet, sewing, scrapbooking, shopping, Facebook, playing with their hair, chatting, instagram, laundry, dishes, cooking and getting their nails done. They have no time for design conversation and design boards.
- Pinterest is the exception.monospaced
- I do all of this except for getting my nails done.jacklalane

Reality: nobody is going to just "let" chicks have leadership roles proportionate to whatever arbitrary ratio people dream up as fair.
They have to work for the positions just like anybody out there. There is no such thing as "fair" and complaining about adversity is just that. Complaining.
- reality = there is no such thing a level playing field.lowimpakt
- Only pushy men get promoted - that's not fair, why not promote less pushy men, so it's 50/50 ?mikotondria3
