I just realized this about the women leadership at my company

Not to steal the topic from the other thread, but I noticed that of the women who have made it to higher levels in our company in more male dominated departments, I.e excluding hr and marketing, they are all attractive women in their 30s. One is C level, others are director, senior director and a VP in various areas in tech, engineering and strategy. Their bosses are all men, who were the ones who promoted all these women into their positions.

So my question is is this a coincidence at my company or are attractive and competent women more likely to get promoted by men in male dominated professions than average or less than average and competent women? Do the men realize this or is it subconscious?

I’m also noticing that the same can’t be said about the male leadership in the same areas. While yes they are all groomed and dress nicely, they are not attractive in the same way the women are.

No, it is not a coincidence.

Nah, for those of us who love beauty and fashion, it’s incredibly fun.

With kids dogs and housework there needs to be someone you're paying to do the dirty work so you can work on yourself all the time. I'm sure the Kardashians do this too.
