Ever get the *ahem* sneaking suspicion that women do way more work than they're given credit for? Well, it's true: and #ThanksForTyping proves it in more ways than one. 。
The hashtag has been trending on Twitter this week, with people sharing the stories of women who painstakingly typed out the work of their academic male relatives for little to no acknowledgement. 。
In some cases, women even edited entire volumes, only to receive a credit along the lines of "thanks to my sweet wife."。

Yup, you guessed it: women have been speaking to this issue for years. Twitter was quick to point to writer and historian Alexis Coe, who has been writing on the subject since 2013.。
