Here are the slides that I used today for the Round Table on Gender Equality (Egalite Zom-Fam) which was organised by the Ministy of Gender at the Paul Octave Wiehe Auditorium:

Also a gallery of images which I showed during the session:

Media tell women that they need to have well-toned bodies

A sports supplement about women athletes that focuses on attributes rather than performance

There are as many women as men in cardiac consultations…

The fair-skinned, flat tummy injunction

Men need to have six packs and be fair-skinned

Women as faire-valoir for technology

Stylish, bourgeois and respectable fair-skinned men

A search for a cover model for a tech magazine
