How To Be Everything: A Look At The Way We Give Advice
summary
A brief survey of 232 respondents (146 women, 72 men, 6 non‑binary, 22 people of color, 38 LGBTQA) claims disadvantaged people hear both own your ignorance and own your expertise and suffer a double bind; diversity spaces report own your expertise 63% of the time while own your ignorance appears 25% of the time. The talk points to vicarious goal‑satiation (the granola vs Trix experiment) and argues the built survey finds a demographic gap and a felt burden rather than neat, universal advice.
