[quote=Anonymous]One example of the monologue in action for me is in workplace feedback. When I started working (big tech), I often was told I had “pointy elbows” or needed to “soften my tone.” I have always been direct but no more so than men I work with. I’ve never heard that same feedback lobbied at a man but have heard it many times towards women. On the other hand, I have also heard many women described during the performance review process as needing to be more assertive… seems there is a perfect balance point for women that doesn’t exist for men. There was a report issued by McKinsey a few years ago that described this phenomenon in more detail, summary here: https://www.betterup.com/blog/performance-reviews-and-gender-bias?hs_amp=true Maybe you haven’t explicitly felt this OP, but there are definitely still societal pressures put on women in the workplace [/quote]
