M.A's commentary:
I kinda thought with the Google block it wouldn't have been visible, but bingo, I am not sorry that this got thru

Indigo's commentary:
Had my mother not emailed me this link to say that it WAS allowed in China, I never would have read this article. But I am so glad I did! The word "just" does seem like I am asking permission or requesting something from someone when I might not want to. It is surprising that in the process of writing this blog, I have gained access or become aware of stories and articles I never would have otherwise.

I'm not totally sure why this isn't blocked. China is very pro equality and having the genders be on level playing fields, so maybe this is meant as a tool for the females in the Chinese workplace. Or maybe it is allowed because as far as I can recall, there doesn't exist a Chinese equivalent for the word "just". So the article is therefore irrelevant. Or maybe they see it as a semi-anit google piece because it points out how a previous female Google exec was subconsciously asking permission for things.

Regardless of the reasons, I am glad that I read this and that it is allowed in China.
