As this list gets off the ground, so many things come to mind that I want to share before i forget. I know we should focus on resolution, but i need one more vent email before that happens. lol The following was my pet peeve, which to some may not be a big deal, but irked the hell out of me because it was soooo cliche. <div>
<div><br></div><div>After a while of being there, i started to notice how there was this indirect manner of discrediting women in leadership positions by questioning their sexual relationships. At first, I didn't really notice a pattern, but when comments were thrown around with different women, i started to realize it was less gossip and more sexist behavior.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Who knows (or even cares) if the allegations were true. However, what I did notice was that never was any man's sexual behavior EVER questioned/ EVER. (and in particularly in that way...which was to paint them power hungry) Now thats some real bull crap, excuse my language. So it lead me believe that this was an easy "punch" below the belt. And let me tell you, that made me super uncomfortable b/c that is some cliche sexism right there. Which is funny b/c even where I grew up (which is REALLY macho) I've never heard stuff like that.</div>
