Any website about gender and science that has this as a header certainly seems promising.  And when you find it's associated with Patricia Campbell, well, then you just start salivating...my friends, you must go visit FairerScience.org

FairerScience is a joint project of the Wellesley Centers for Women and Campbell-Kibler Associates, Inc. It is funded by the National Science Foundation's Research on Gender in Science and Engineering Program and lead by Dr. Susan Bailey, executive director of the Wellesley Centers for Women and Dr. Patricia Campbell, president of Campbell-Kibler Associates, Inc.

If nothing else, you should just check out the FREE resources on this website. 

FairerScience has a blogThere you will find Richard Petty speaking in a very Petty manner about women racecar drivers. 

...NASCAR king Richard Petty still doesn't think that women belong on the race track. "I just don't think it's a sport for women," Petty said in an interview with The Associated Press

Hmmm.  Richard, men don't belong in the newspapers being quoted as to what women should not be doing.  "I just don't think circumscribing women's opportunities is a (very attractive) sport for men," said Zuska.  

In a new feature of Thus Spake Zuska, I will occasionally be prescribing virtual gender justice alignments where necessary.  Mr. Petty:  one sound wallop to the side of the head with a 3/4 inch gender-equity socket wrench.  Repeat as necessary.
