Check out this great article!
A few of my favorite pieces from the article...
"we are still not able to think about women who attain certain kinds of professional success as normatively gendered"
"success itself is masculinized"
"Similarly, there is research to suggest that even races are gendered in our culture. Psychologist Phillip Atiba Goff has done studies showing that blackness tends to be hypermasculinized while Asian-ness tends to be hyperfeminized."
What can we do to remedy these stereotypes?
