Yeah. I’ve also explained to what feels like a BILLION men that women aren’t running screaming to HR over every unwanted hug or boob-stare. We put up with A LOT OF FUCKERY.

I am 100% ready to leave my industry for this reason. I see no reason to have to constantly reassure a bunch of men that I can in fact know things even though I am a woman.

OMG thank you for giving me this laugh, you ignorant piece of trash.

I wish more companies operated that way. I’ve considered switching careers sometime in the next year or so, and I don’t have a specific industry, but I would like to have a job that doesn’t involve a well-known expectation of sexual harassment.

I have a lot of progressive male friends who are off the “boys will be boys” train and jumped straight on to the “but there are gray areas and now I question almost every interaction I have with a female coworker, life is hard, wahh” train. I basically had to say “welcome to our world, boys” because that’s what a LOT

You’re right about qualifications, but that’s not the deciding factor of electability.

Maybe next year, but I’m not holding my breath.

It’s usually a “will this get me fired? Probably not. Here we go!” Pause vs worrying if my opinion is relevant, but I appreciate your reassurance! Thanks!

You’re not wrong!

THEY DIDN’T EVEN HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THEIR DAMN CLOTHES. 90% of them would have showed up in black anyway. They did as close to NOTHING as possible.

I’m giving them 48 hours (sent the email last night) and then will follow up. I have a few friends who are small business owners, so I understand the impact of reviews on businesses, and I think it’s more than fair to give the business an opportunity to respond.

My favorite moment was the pause before Natalie Portman said “and here are the all-male nominees.” There’s that moment where she stops herself from talking and then leans into the mic and just goes for it. I feel like I’ve had that pause a few times before opening my big mouth to destroy my colleagues and their

There are SO MANY THINGS they could have done to show support, including what you said, without making it about them. I would have loved if they could have thanked the activists in attendance, maybe given a shout out to one of their books, or a woman who they haven’t fucked who greatly influenced their career...

This is a cop-out. They don’t have to give impassioned speeches or whatever, but they could and should have done a little more than wearing a damn pin.

I sent an email a little earlier through their website. I saved it in case they don’t respond, so I can send it again, or blast them if needed. I don’t want this to turn into one of those messy “open letter” social media bullshit posts, but I am fucking sick of men thinking they have a right to women’s bodies,

Yesterday a bartender attempted to physically remove my phone from my hands, in the middle of me typing up a “please thank you for rescheduling my interview to a Sunday due to this bitch-ass winter storm that stranded me in Cleveland for several days longer than intended.” The last time I was there he spent the entire

My sister starting going to church. She mostly does it to hang out with the neighbors and escape her abusive husband, but the pastor is one of those Mike Pence loving mother fuckers who refuses to have a meeting with a woman without his wife or her husband, or other “acceptable” chaperone. So, when she asked to talk

I can’t stop watching this drama dog do drama.

A girl can dream.

Yeah, my guess is after their “date” he pretended he didn’t agree to any sort of exchange and tried to kick her out. The very little that I’ve read about him leads me to believe that he’s the kind of guy who likes to pick up “dates” and refuse payment because he thinks he is above all that. I really want someone
