Make them play by their own rules.

Just three days after Google announced that it had “closed the gender pay gap globally” on Equal Pay Day, a Department of Labor official testified in federal court that there is “systemic” discrimination against women at Google.

Silicon Valley has often come under fire in recent years for being unfriendly to women, with sexual harassment allegations and lawsuits over gender bias. But a DoL official told The Guardian Friday that Google’s discrimination was “extreme,” even for the industry.

The article also indicates that women and minorities are underrepresented in Google’s total workforce and leadership positions.

Maybe they should all shave their heads and then line up to get their Mao suits?
