Here are all the companies and institutions that have never had a woman in charge

By Roberto A. Ferdman
Would it surprise you to hear that every dean of Harvard Business School, Wharton Business School, Stanford Graduate School of Business, MIT Sloan School of Management, and University of Chicago Booth School of Business has been male?

Or that the same were true of every Secretary General of the United Nations? And everyone who has led the World Trade Organization. And International Olympic Committee. And everyone serving on the European Central Bank Governing Council.

I’d tell you that every CEO of every airline in the Star Alliance and every CEO of every airline in oneworld is male, too, but that’s probably a yawner at this point.

Boys club tumblr 100percentmen set out to “shine a light” on the “corners of the world where women have yet to tread.” We’ve listed only a few noteworthy examples from their tumblr but the site lists many more.

And it’s not just a list of places where a man has the top job. The blog records many company boards, management committees, award juries and other bodies where every single member is a man.

Sheryl Sandberg has been pushing for women to Lean In, while some female executives have shattered the glass ceiling, but this list is a reminder of just how far there is yet to go.

there's no patriarchy, no sexism, no misogyny... and we women have it so much better than women in other countries!

We should just shut up and be thankful for what we have.
