Opinion: I’m not your #GirlBoss, I’m your boss

Catherine Lloyd, Copy Editor, condemns the recent trend of reducing women’s corporate and business successes to the term “girlboss” The term “Girlboss” is the verbal equivalent of a pat on the head or worse, a participation medal. And women are cladding themselves in t-shirts, carrying tote bags and drinking from water-bottles emblazoned with the phrase […]

Cine Queer Review: Kings, Queens & In-Betweens, and Venus

When defining drag, it seems there are many variations. To some, or the mainstream, drag queens are cis-males dressing as, and putting on the characteristics of, women. Yet, it is a lot more complex. For starters, there are also drag kings. Both of which do not have to be performed by cis-men/women. More than anything, […]

Hey Girls… Wanna Talk About Period Poverty?

Homelessness, natural disasters and extreme poverty. All of these things have several impacts, with many charities working hard to provide food, bedding and other supplies. But when people talk about these issues, how many actually consider the importance of access to sanitary products for young girls and women? Every day, many young women around the world […]

Kate Andrews calls gender pay gap ‘victimhood politics’

Kate Andrews of the Institute of Economic Affairs spoke to students yesterday, urging female students in particular not to believe the ‘victimhood politics’ represented by the gender pay gap issue – of which she describes as a ‘myth’. The generally accepted figure for the gender pay gap is 9.4 percent between men and women. In her […]

Why is nobody talking about successful steps towards gender equality?

Exeposé recently uncovered the gender pay gap existing between employees of the University of Exeter, with women earning a whopping 21% less than their male colleagues. This story, quite rightly, made front page news, with academics and students alike reacting with outrage to the investigation. Whilst I am in no way validating this pay gap […]

Exeter pay gap is “outrageous,” says academic

Female staff members at the University of Exeter are expected to earn 21 per cent less than their male counterparts – whilst the gender pay gap for academics is, on average, 16.7 per cent. According to an Exeposé Freedom of Information (FOI) request, the University’s gender pay gap has a mean value of £8,476 for […]

When does art become pornographic?

On 10th April, Japanese artist Megumi Igarashi was found guilty of sexual obscenity and fined 400,000 Japanese Yen (or $3,500), for sharing 3D prints of her design for a vagina-shaped kayak, aptly named ‘pussy boat’. Igarashi has since commented that she was “disappointed [the] concept hasn’t been understood by the judge”, despite the court’s unexpected […]

Jokes on the butt or butt of the jokes?

Too often female comedians are forced to make themselves the butt of the joke rather than showcasing their own wit and experience. Why is this, I wonder? Having seen Sarah Millican live a few years ago, I can say that, at least to a degree, female comedians restrict themselves, deliberately or not, to joking about […]

Feminist Friday: the gendered language barrier

In the globalised, 21st century world, traditional language barriers have all but lost their significance and digital advancements have made communication easier than ever. So now we can have a dialogue, it’s time to break down the repressive lexical and semantic walls erected by our ancestors that form the gendered language barrier and to make […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
