Re:Gender Decoder: find subtle bias in job ads by brlewis on Wednesday June 13, 2018 @09:26AM (#17302798)
The tool looks for words that might affect the gender ratio among applicants. It's possible to be thinking masculine while writing a job description but still use language that won't discourage feminine applicants.

I'm curious why lead/led/leader/leadership are masculine-coded words when most people grow up in an environment where the primary authority they interact with is their mother.
