my experience is also in STEM - it’s sad that we haven’t come far enough even after all this time :(

I’ve worked in STEM for almost two decades now, though in a variety of industries. I’ve shared the same experiences. Even the act of negotiating — which is expected of male peers — can have negative repercussions on women.

I work in the legal industry, and when I asked for a promotion/raise that I believed I’d earned (based on time served, the importance of the case I was on, the amount of overtime and travel I’d put in, and glowing reviews of my work). From the boss who told me that yes, my work product was OBJECTIVELY BETTER than male…

Ow, that dress Gina is wearing in the header photo is giving my boobs sympathy pains.

That’s so awful, I’m so sorry that happened to you. This kind of indifference/incompetence is so angering.

My rapist admitted it to police the night of, he didn’t call it rape but admitted I couldn’t consent. I went to the hospital that night and documented all my injuries. He admitted to me in a text that he would plead guilty if I ever pressed charges. That wasn't enough for a Hennepin County prosecutor. I wonder if it's…

Her family should sue him for wrongful death

Yeah, you don’t offer bail or an ankle braclet to a violent domestic abuser who was caught armed after kidnapping and torturing his wife...especially when they lives six miles from one another (says so in source). This judge fucked up royally and it cost this woman her life.

Fuck Judge Gary Gilman. This woman’s death is on your hands asshole. And as usual incompetent men won’t suffer consequences while this woman is now dead.

Accidentally read headline as Aaron Pervsky. I wasn’t far off. Child pornography a misdemeanor? Get this fucker off the bench!

That should include preparation to deal with situations you are uncomfortable with. Sexual/workplace harassment and bullying, etc. It does occur and people who “adult” properly will be able to handle it.

“Allegedly, she is a fan of George Orwell and Ayn Rand … most unusual.”

YES! Let’s blame her! Her stupidity forced that scumbag to assault her!

His friends gave him this nickname. His fucking friends. Like it was a big fucking joke. “LOL, you know our good buddy David and his penchant for raping unconscious girls.”

So, basically, they are attempting to blackmail the family into silence with the threat of releasing her name. I mean, that’s what it sounds like to me. Correct me if that’s wrong.

Yeah he can be pretty misogynist in his routine so I probably wouldn’t recomend it if that’s an issue.

Synchronized aggressive sloppy swishing in public has been the best way for my sister and me to annoy and embarrass my mom for years. Thanks for that, Taran.

What she fails to realize is that she had the privilege of being able to call up her high-powered attorney to get him to back off. If she hadn’t, she likely would have been in the same situation as all the other women. Not everyone has access to the resources that Ross had.
