This Site Proves Women Know Lots About ‘Male-Dominated’ Topics

A crowdsourced list on WordPress called Women Also Know Stuff is challenging the notion that women aren’t knowledgeable about contentious topics like politics in the world. Anyone can submit a woman for review on the site, to be featured in one of their many categories, ranging from military intervention to Southeast Asian policy. Women Also Know Stuff manages to cover all you could ever imagine about political science and sociology, in every corner of the world.

The site aims to connect people who want to know more to women who specialize in certain areas of political theory and study. Women Also Know Stuff lists their contact information to easily direct people to female experts, and experts of color. Ultimately, it’s a dazzling showcase of intellectuals.
