• Change gets called a bitch. The Atlantic's Michelle Cottle speculates that a Hillary Clinton victory in November would "usher in four-to-eight years of the kind of down-and-dirty public misogyny you might expect from a stag party at Roger Ailes’s house." The Atlantic
• The million-dollar gap. The latest gender wage gap report finds that black and Latino women will lose more than $877,000 and $1 million, respectively, over a 40-year career compared to their white male counterparts. The Guardian
• The final taboo? After her team finished the 4x100 meter medley relay this weekend, China’s Olympic swimmer Fu Yuanhui discussed feeling week and tired because her period had started the night before.
