New Information
Would it be appropriate to add the following information to this article to provide a modern day example of this phenomenon? "This phenomenon can also be seen in academia. Barbara Bagihole, the Director of Studies for MA in Women's Studies at the University of Loughborough, England, conducted a study that revealed that the women she interviewed felt the need to disassociate themselves from their female colleagues in order to succeed in their male dominated field.

Article Restructuring
I have the following plans for restructuring the article:

Replacing the two current images with one of Queen Elizabeth I

Dividing the article into two subsections: "In history" and "20th century to present"

Adding the following sentence to the first line and making that the introduction: Such a woman might be considered “one of the guys” by the men she associates with.

Adding the following in the "20th century to present" subsection: Women in the military face a similar problem. Recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have allowed them chances to take combat roles. However, in order for women in the military to be accepted and considered successful, they feel they must become “one of the guys.” Otherwise they face ridicule and exclusion.

Thanks, and a suggestion
Thanks for improving this article. Just a suggestion - if there are additional sources that you think would be useful to readers, but that aren't actually cited, you can create a section at the end called "Further reading" and add a bullet list, like this: History of Irish Americans in Boston --MopTop (talk) 21:50, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

Unclear claims?
"...and had access to birth control and abortions."

I'm not familiar with birth control and abortions in ancient Egypt, it might as well be true, but it seems there is no source for this information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.188.208.101 (talk) 22:16, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Question on adding an area for frame-working solutions to the problem of Honorary Male
This page provides some historical as well as modern day mappings of the honorary male. In many ways, this is a basic page for understanding the term honorary male, however, I am not sure this page deconstructs the power structures or the psychological side of domination and alienation necessary in further problematizing the term. This page gives a fantastic definition, but so does google. Perhaps, this page could be a source or foundation for helping those dedicated to eliminating historical and universal sexist behaviors which lead to the "honorary male". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jack mahr (talk • contribs) 05:16, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

Double blind?
In the current version (Special:PermaLink/867748532) there is a section Working around the double blind. Is it correct? I suppose it's a typo and I could change it to double bind, but... The word blind is used three times in it (including the section's title), which makes me think it might be intentional. Any suggestions? --CiaPan (talk) 11:25, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

P.S. The section has been added a month ago by. A week ago I asked the author for a comment, but got no answer yet. --CiaPan (talk)


 * No objection for ten days – replaced: Special:Diff/870449932. --CiaPan (talk) 22:07, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
