Tech leaders also go in on the call to action. Square CEO Jackie Reses tweeted a picture of employees wearing red to show their solidarity.
Sir Richard Branson tweeted about businesswomen who he admires, including the founder of Spanx Shapewear, though some question whether shapewear is liberating.
Snapchat is getting some backlash for its filter honoring scientist Marie Curie because it appears to give users a thinner face and lots of eye makeup.
