Last paragraph https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_W._Rossiter

In the early 1980's Margaret Rossiter offered two concepts for understanding the mass of statistics on women in science and the disadvantages women continued to suffer. The first she called hierarchical segregation, the well-known phenomenon that as one moves up the ladder of power and prestige fewer females faces are to be seen. This notion is perhaps more useful than that of the glass ceiling-the supposedly invisible barrier that keeps women from rising to the top-because the notion of hierarchical disparities draws attention to the multiple stages at which women drop off as they attempt to climb academic or industrial ladders. THe second concept she offered was "territorial segregation" or how women cluster in scientific disciplines. The most striking example of occupational territoriality used to be that women stayed at home and men went out to work.

Hottentot Contribution
Hottentot Venus - My group's page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hottentot_Venus Following Hottentot’s performances in London, the “Slave Trade Act 1807 was passed” The Slave Trade Act 1807 abolished slave trade in Britain, but not slavery itself. This created a scandal, causing the “African Association” to conduct a campaign for Hottentot’s freedom. However, Hottentot had two options: return to South Africa, where her family lived or stay in England, where she received profit and some freedom. Eventually, Hottentot journeyed to France in 1810 and was handed over to a predatory showman. During the time, France was considered a forward and liberal country except for that of racisms towards Caribbean’s, Africans and Asians. Due to her certain sexual traits, Hottentot became the object of scientific and sexual interest.

My contribution
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_Fox_Keller#Discussion_of_work

Evelyn Fox Keller has documented how the masculine-identified public sphere and the feminine-identified private sphere have structured thinking in two areas of evolutionary biology: population genetics and mathematical ecology. Her concern is to show how the selection process that occurs in the context of discovery limits what we come to know. Keller argues that the assumption that the atomistic individual is the fundamental unit in nature has led population geneticists to omit sexual reproduction from their models. Though the critique of misplaced individualism is nothing new, the gender dynamics Keller reveals are. According to Keller, geneticists treat reproduction as if individuals reproduce themselves, effectively bypassing the complexities of sexual difference, the contingencies of mating, and fertilization. She likens the biologists' atomistic individual to heuristic individual portrayed by mainstream Western political and economic theorists. Keller argues further that biologists use values ascribed to the public sphere of Western culture to depict relations between indivudals (while values generally attributed to the private sphere to describe relations are confused to the interior of an individual organism.)

=Peer Reviews= By Nalfonzo: Malikaa1230, You might want to consider editing the following things (Things in bold): ''As you can see there is not really anything in bold, however, you should probably move your paragraph further up the section which is now referred to as Career and Academic Contributions. You stated in the early 1980's which is perfectly fine and you brought amazing information to that section, but to transition from "Rossiter completed her trilogy on Women Scientists in America with the publication, in 2012..." to the 1980's just does not flow properly.

'' You do not need quotation marks around "the Slave Trade Act 1807 was passed," however you do have the right idea to add hyperlinks. You have good starting information for Social and Political Reform, but I feel as if there could be an expansion on information such as why she journeyed to France, which ties into how the political and social reforms from Britain differed from France. You can also discuss how becoming the object of scientific and sexual interest is socially reforming society.''

'All in all you have made some really great contributions to Wikipedia. Even your one liner within Maria Goeppert-Mayer's page and the Intersex page goes a long way. You were always on topic with what you were explaining, I just think you need to further clarify and expand some information and you'll be fine. Other than that great job! By the way, you should add a little bit more to a Wikipedia page. I think you might be short on some words.'
