【】Check it out. It f*cking sucks.
Ever get the *ahem* sneaking suspicion that women do way more work than they're given credit for? Well, it's true: and #ThanksForTyping proves it in more ways than one. 。
The hashtag has been trending on Twitter this week, with people sharing the stories of women who painstakingly typed out the work of their academic male relatives for little to no acknowledgement. 。

It's a worthwhile reminder to be mindful about who we allow to be the primary voice of a viral issue.

Especially when we're trying to give women their due.。
