I am incredibly proud that my book, co-authored with Andrea Aldrich, is published. Using an original party leadership dataset from 11 parliamentary democracies, Andrea and I show that women candidates face a glass ceiling for leadership and quickly sink once elected (the quicksand theory).

We had an amazing time in ITAM in Mexico City for the 17th Empirical Study of Gender (EGEN) workshop! Our workshop brought together scholars from around the world to discuss projects on gender and power, get feedback, and build community. Look at this group of amazing scholars 🤩

Thank you to @ITAM and @egenpolisci.bsky.social for a wonderful workshop arguing about gender and political power. We won't give up studying representation, violence against women, and backlash just because there are haters!

We really appreciate everyone who came from around the world to present, give feedback, and build community. Studying gender and power is important and essential research – we will continue to support scholars who engage in this space. Follow us for more information and resources!

All EGEN workshops are fully *read ahead* with our authors getting what @mirya.bsky.social calls “a firehose” of feedback from other participants. These take two forms: a plenary, where _everyone_ gives feedback and breakout sessions, with feedback from a curated set of experts
