I usually think all the diversity talk is just modernist claptrap, but occasionally I see or experience something where I pause and think...
There is sorta a point to it, isn't there?
Discussion
Diversity in profile pictures.
None of that. The profile picture stays.
My PfP diversity days are behind me.
At least for a week.
One example of an experience I made, of the positive sort:
I asked my wife to look into our job postings and point out what bothered her. We fixed some formulation details. This has been a year ago. We receive much more applicantions of female software developers now.
One of the negative sort:
A leaving employee made it her last act to introduce unisex toilets at the office. We thought why not and changed labels. Today a lot of new visitors are confused. They insecurely point to the door: can I go to toilet here?
They made the toilets at our college unisex. Then they had to change some back because girls were going to nearby businesses to use the toilet.
People have forgotten that womens' toilets were a big step to allowing women to move freely in public.
