[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know what? Women had to work like crazy to break into professional careers, network, wear power suits and work there a$$es off. We had to learn all the rules of the men’s club in order to get a foot in (after centuries of being treated like chattel). Give me an effing break with this nonsense that men can no longer figure out how to be successful. [/quote]

Are you appropriating the struggles of generations of women for yourself? What did you do?[/quote]

You're joking, right? I've been groped AT WORK, verbally harassed AT WORK, paid less then men in my position. I've been presumed to be the secretary on more than one occasion. I've been dismissed by calling me by my first name at the conference table where every man at the table was Mr. So-and-So. I've seen men ding women in job interviews for being "a young mother."

The generations prior had it worse. But you're an effing idiot if you think those struggles are not still here in some form. That's number 1.

Number 2, the playing field is more level now. Not level. And many men -again, not all- see that as a threat. When you've been given a head start at 3d base for  . . . . generations . . . and now you have to start at home plate with everyone else, it can be unsettling. But they're no victims. And while I can understand that it is hard for these guys to comprehend, it has been MUCH harder for women. [/quote]
