I work in a small office that is currently 8/10 female. At one time (when we were 90% female!) we had an office social gathering where several of the grown, over 35 women, professed that they preferred men over women. That they preferred men as friends, and that they preferred working with men. So not only were fully grown women doing the “not like other girls” schtick, they maybe didn’t realize they were openly confessing that they didn’t like each other very much. Very strange vibes! Needless to say I do not trust any of them.

@@blueshoes915 I am genuinely curious to your thoughts on this, I think it's partially that men are expected to be aggressive and display leadership due to gender roles and if they don't they are seen as un-masculine. Men are basically 'allowed' to express anger and often feel that is their only option. I do understand the concern that because women are expected to be submissive and men dominant, men get more upward mobility in the workplace and women get less so they don't earn as much, given fewer promotions, not respected as a SME, etc the situation is a net negative for women. I think it stems from ingrained misogny that women's communication styles are seen as lesser.

Fun fact - computer programming was originally thought of as a "woman's job" because it was thought to be clerical and not requiring much skill. Then the work started to gain more respect and the salaries improved a lot, making it a more appealing career for young male professionals. Companies with programming roles then started to add aptitude tests to the hiring process which were designed to favour male attributes, side-lining women from the computer programming industry. The programming industry started to become more male dominated and that was when the culture of the "nerdy male gamer programmer" started to become the norm in computer science, and women were further excluded. What used to be a female dominated industry now sees undergraduate courses in computer science having graduates that are only about 18% female.

Not necessarily. It comes from the fact that we have a larger population in comparison to men; yet women are often passed on opportunities on growth because we nurture. Men have passed us for decades with the thought that we would marry and then eventually quit and have children, or that we’d always leave work and take care of the family. The nurture part is a so they think. They could care less about our ambitions

I mean it's great for them but as a single woman who only seems to meet either married men or men who don't want to have a committed relationship, I'm trying to do this mostly alone and it's really not easy ie. not having someone else's salary to fall back on when starting up my business.

On the whole stop apologizing thing - It depends on where the apology stems from, and how it's handled. I tend to say it out of habit or because of low self-esteem. It took my boss, who happens to be an older white male, talking to me about this habit, telling me he used to do the same until was pointed out to him, to really think about it. Now if I say I'm sorry, he almost always responds "Don't apologize, you didn't do anything wrong". It's actually helped me cut back on saying it out of habit, but it hasn't stopped me from saying it out of empathy (those are usually the ones he doesn't comment on).

Now that I'm an employer, mental health is important for all of us. If someone is having a bad mental or physical health day, I want them to be honest about it so we can accommodate their needs. When people are distressed and in pain, they will not show up well for their job. I've found women to be generally more understanding of this fact. Also the completely personal bias... I'm a lot less likely to power struggle with a woman. HOWEVER, I also think this can vary greatly based on the industry and the workplace culture in a particular company.

Loved this. But I have to disagree with what you said about Angela Merkel. Her rise to the top is more related to her upbringing in the GDR than her being upper middle class or having money. In the GDR women were way more empowered and considered more equal to men than in Western Germany. That's something we like to forget when ranting about communism. I'm not saying she wasn't privileged. But money is not as necessary for a politician to get into a powerful position in Germany as it is in the US. Plus she became chancellor in 2005 which is way before the girl boss period.

Agree with this. Also she grew up on a house of faith when it was taboo elsewhere. She was raised knowing her belief may not be the norm but it is meaningful and not conforming. She gained the trust of Germany in ousting her mentor in a public news article for unethical practices that came to light and her moral compass has led to 16 years as Chancellor, and a popular one at that. Male or female, her leadership was exemplary for Germany and Europe.

Yes exactly! Girlboss! Sounds like an upper class woman. In ancient Athens the privileged women had the privilege of not having to endanger themselves. They would live in a closed off world, were uneducated and were not allowed out of the house. They did, however have a lot of servants to boss around. But these types of women were taught it was 'classy' to be childlike and ignorant. The middle class women and prostitutes were ironically more educated than their rich counterparts. They had more freedom because their families weren't vested in them for financial reasons. But being free and educated was considered not classy because it was considered a sign of hardship and a difficult life.

The “Girl Boss” hasn’t gone anywhere, its just been rebranded for Gen-Z as being “That girl” or “Being the main character”. Yes Gen-Z take the mick out of the term “Girl Boss” but it’s still incredibly ripe and affecting girls at a MUCH younger age now as they grew up with the unnecessary pressure of trying to “Girl Boss way to close to the sun”. It’s still very white, it’s still very rich and it’s still very shallow. The only upgrade is that different ethnicities and culture are developing their own version of a girlboss rather than leaning into the way white girls do it.

Therefore, every last minute must be an opportunity to “better” yourself by improving your looks rather than doing the hard thinking and working required to get a job done. All in all, we have to spend so much of our time and attention on beauty so that we do NOT have time and attention to actually become successful.

To be clear: i'm pro union, the sexism isn't caused by union. From my understanding, the union structure mitigates the worst parts of sexism in the industry: mom has been able to file grievamces against dudes who harassed her and because she's good at her job, her bosses and coworkers pushed the shit dudes out.
