This is an excerpt from a book - but it stands out vividly with a number of examples highlighting how a lot of tools and processes here have been targeted at men - and continue to discomfort, and even actively harm, women.

Goes into some classic examples (like air conditioning/temperatures in the office) to a lot of new ones that I wasn't aware of before.
