When I'm nice to women I work with they act completely shocked. It's really weird.

I work in tech, but I'm mostly technical client-facing. It's really hard to pretend to be empathetic about software and get what I need to get done, so I've looked into moving to Dev or product, but I am now unsure of that decision.

I've fired people for poo poo a fraction as bad as that. My regret is that I wasn't able to fire thousands more from the industry around me.

I could probably find it if I dug around for a bit but there was a huge list of stats and resources I found about women fighting for their rights working in fields like sanitation and stuff that often get cited in those arguments. I couldn't even imagine the resilience that takes so those women have some deep respect from me

You shouldn't have to be a loving superhero to have a comfortable career in tech as a woman or PoC. God knows white men don't.

Antivehicular posted:I think it's okay to ask about why someone's having sex problems during sex as a part of, you know, hopefully improving the sex or seeing if something is a problem for your partner? This seems like a weird thing to complain about. He is successfully having sex with someone else, his issue obviously has something to do with her, grilling him when he loses his boner is only gonna make it worse.

54 40 or gently caress posted:And then you talk about disparity in certain employment fields, and men claim "well women don't want to work those jobs". Sure they do, they just don't want to get loving harassed and bullied out of the workplace. What employment field don't have a gender disparity? Early education, and uh ... insurance sales?

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:What employment field don't have a gender disparity? I said certain because the reasons for disparity are different for say, sanitation than they are for ECE. Sanitation is based on the belief historically that women were incapable of the jobs and the amount of sexism/sexual harassment whereas ECE/nursing were traditionally viewed as feminine because children/caring about people=for vagina havers only and men in those fields would have their masculinity questioned. To put it in very plain terms. Education actually is relatively balanced but also not at the same time. More men are teaching subjects like math and science where women are teaching social sciences, English, etc. that's a whole other discussion worthy of its own thread tbqh

p rude posted:Not from /r/relationships, but still pretty horrifying quote:When I reported the situation, I was told by both HR and upper management that even though this was clearly sexual harassment and he was propositioning me, it was this man's first offense, and that they wouldn't feel comfortable giving him anything other than a warning and a stern talking-to. Upper management told me that he "was a high performer" (i.e. had stellar performance reviews from his superiors) and they wouldn't feel comfortable punishing him for what was probably just an innocent mistake on his part.

It's a nebbish doofus thing. Ugly nerds pull faces in photos because they think that if they look deliberately awkward then people won't notice that they're unavoidably awkward.

I remember meeting a female engineer in a very, very heavily male dominated field (even for engineering), and she told me that on her first day, as the first female in the entire company, her boss took her aside and said, "There's no sexism at this company, so don't go playing the 'woman card'." Just try to peel that loving onion. And this wasn't the 70s, this was like four years ago.

The only surprise is that he didn't immediately segue into sexual harassment from there.

You shouldn't have to be a loving superhero to have a comfortable career in tech as a woman or PoC. God knows white men don't. This is a good mantra for tech companies even outside of increasing diversity. Not every hire needs to be some insane wonderchild. I've seen job postings get taken away from departments because they're taking so long/being so picky about who they hire. Reading that Uber poo poo is crazy, makes me super glad my company has made it a mandate to increase diversity at all levels. Not that we're perfect, but our engineering org has become more diverse over the last few years and we're finally getting women and other minorities into leadership roles. I'd love to see more diversity at the executive level though...

Dear r/sex, my boyfriend wants to do gay porn in Minneapolis. What should I know going in?quote:We're in our late twenties. We live together in a small apartment in the southeastern US. We plan on getting married in a couple years and have an open relationship. Top comment: quote:I always thought it would be difficult to get nubile young men to send me naked selfies, particularly living in the midwest. But it turns out, all I had to do was put an ad on Craigslist! WrenP-Complete fucked around with this message at 15:33 on Feb 20, 2017 |

One time I had a problem where two employees who I like apart from each other were bitching about each other through me and it was really wearing me down. They'd get in bizarre turf wars over things like who calibrates what scales and in the morning I'd have to navigate a stupid web of 'what are arbitrarily my duties today' between two people for whom I was the proxy of their 'enemy'. I told the plant manager how it was wearing on me and she told them to stop, set my duties down in writing, and told me if it became a problem again to let her know again. It feels really good to have your feelings respected and accounted for at work. Going to and being at work is hard enough I don't know why people compound that with the stupidest bullshit.
