My gym is owned by a man, and I’d say the employees are split pretty evenly down the gender line. They announced no one will be in to work the front desk, do personal training sessions, or lead group classes today.

They’re only chopping wood because the coal mine closed. :-(

Ha! I like your joke:) And, yes, you must get to know Drew. For me, his best is on Deadspin’s “Adequate Man.” Just hold your cursor over “Deadspin” and you will see “Adequate Man.” In particular, his “Funbag” series is very popular (and gut-splitting, imo). I believe that “Funbag” is a reference to “mailbag” because…

Ok, and from March 9 onward let’s have all women running the place

OT:

I’m a guy, and I will take down my commerce website for the day to support “A Day Without A Woman”. Think RED.

OMG, why do all schools have an environment where you can never clear the air with colleagues who are pains in the ass? I am a teacher and there’s someone I don’t even acknowledge because he’s such a mysogynistic ass. He tells everyone he knows I don’t like him. It’s like he’s trying to shame me into being nice to him…

Hey, don’t feel bad about the red. I looked through my closet and found one red shirt (it’s more like maroonish with lots of gold in it) and one dark red sweater! I’ll be wearing the sweater tomorrow. I’m pretty pale so I tend to look like a corpse in anything that’s bright red.

It’s disheartening that no one at my 500+ workplace is striking. My entire department is 99% women! It’d make a huge statement! So I’ll be the scab. A scabbity scabby scab!

When my season starts I’m wearing a small pink ribbon on my wrist with a safety pin on it. If a supervisor asks, I’m wearing it because it’s “pretty”. If my coworkers can wear crosses, I can wear this. 😉

You’re making a real difference by your participation despite having all that on your shoulders. Just reading your comment made me happy.

I’LL BE HOPING FOR A FOLLOW-UP PUNCH!

I’ll be hoping for a follow-up post!

I’m the only female mortician at the funeral home where I work. I work with a gaggle of Neanderthal men with the combined IQ of six, all misogynistic, racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic (and shockingly Trump-supporting!) Philistines. I am calling in sick tomorrow and the place will no doubt burst into flames without the…

I’m a pregnant stay at home mom who is partly a stay at home mom because childcare was $1500/month and I couldn’t afford to go back. My husband has a modest income for a job that he can’t miss, so I’ll be doing what I’m always doing: gestating and watching my toddler. I did make sure to do all shopping/errands today…

Sadly I just blew a big chunk of my vacation time visiting Mr. Antisocial in Alabama, so I can’t really afford to take the day off. I also don’t have any red in my wardrobe (what is wrong with me) but I do have a pink Planned Parenthood t-shirt that I’ll be stealthily wearing underneath a sweatshirt. I’m technically…

I’m a high school English teacher, and I plan to punch one of my colleagues in his throat when he makes his first condescending or misogynistic (or both) comment.

I’m a counselor at an abortion clinic in Houston. I’ll be at work helping women access abortion care while they still are able to exercise that right!
