Does she necessarily need to or do you want her to? I notice you're not really refuting her actual argument that motivated this post to begin with?
She presented what I thought was a cogent argument, provided examples, and concluded thoughtfully with sourced counterexamples of her own that she believes fits the underrepresented archetypes relevant to the social groups she belongs to and the topics they discuss.
I for one found it interesting enough that I recognized a couple of the names she listed (bell hooks and Robin Máxkii), and the familiarity with those works was a good motivator for me to look into the others, I'm appreciative for the new sources of knowledge provided here.
Perhaps the author here felt the names and sources she provided as alternative-or maybe more fairly-supplemental readings can provide more insight than her words alone?
