Amazon wouldn't allow Shrier's book to be advertised on the Amazon site, so I think it's unrealistic to expect Goodreads to be more open to "GC" views than the parent company. The Goodreads terms of service "community guidelines" say

"Goodreads reserves the right to remove content at any time for any reason. It is at our sole discretion to decide when content violates our guidelines."

Amazon gets a perfect score from the Scrotum Rights Campaign and has given CEO & founder Jeff Bezos its "Equality Award."

Amazon is fully signed up to "diversity & inclusion." The policy statements I've seen say all mention "gender" but not "sex":

"We are a company of builders who bring varying backgrounds, ideas, and points of view to inventing on behalf of our customers. Our diverse perspectives come from many sources including gender, race, age, national origin, sexual orientation, culture, education, and professional and life experience. We are committed to diversity and inclusion and always look for ways to scale our impact as we grow."

I wish there was an organization grading these companies on women's rights. Are there any companies left that have not jumped on the gender bandwagon?

Maybe we should make one.
