[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should see all the women at my office, in a while collar environment. Holy hell....very catty with the knives out always.[/quote]
I have no doubt things are tense and ruthless there, I've met many professionals I would not want to work with as their norms are shocking. Many men are also catty, to a scary degree.[/quote]

Men can be awful, but I think one of the reasons women notice/complain about the behavior of other women in the office more these days is because men actually behave so much better than they once did. Even compared to 10-15 years ago, men have really gotten the message that you need to be respectful and non-discriminatory towards women. So even men who might be inclined to be catty or gossipy seem to avoid it, at least not in a way that targets women in the office.

But women haven't been sent this message, and as a result I think they feel more freedom to be awful to other women in the office. So in 2026, as a woman in a professional role, if you're going to have a really negative experience with a coworker, I think it's more likely to be another woman. Just because the men have had it trained out of them.[/quote]
