Sexual and reproductive healthcare is a basic human right, not a privilege contingent on geography or political mood swings.

It’s then hardly unreasonable to say that giving assistants/chatbots female names risks repeating and even reinforcing the very discriminatory patterns and bias women already suffer from.

This would certainly not convince all the greed apologists and ‘temporarily embarrassed millionaires’ that hoarding this kind of wealth isn’t normal, but I bet it would make some question it more.

The only difference is that today this rubbish also lines the pockets of massive corporations that want us to be more concerned with our wrinkles and sagging skin than question the inequalities that actually shape how we age.

Perhaps it's time to replace the myth of 'man the protector' with a more accurate 'eldest daughter the protector.'
