Quoting Capoeira:

Well along those lines one should add EVERY man as well. Because some other man had to open the door for them as well. The most powerful man in the world, unfortunately, George W. Bush surely one could not think he got to that position without his father.



This is an excellent point I was going to mention!

Quoting aenigma x:

Absolutely! Incidently, the abuse of women in top jobs is unbelievable. Men are sarcastic and sullen to their faces and in many cases will try to sabotage their successes.

Wherever I have worked I have noticed that all levels of male managers will meet together regularly in a male environment (such as a pub or club) where they release their frustrations by joking about their female colleagues in disgusting and sexual ways.

The poor insecure lambs....



Yes, absolutely! I have studied engineering and it's unbelievable how insecure men are when it comes to working with women in traditionally male environments. It impinges on their already fragile masculinity .

Quoting aenigma x:

they only manage success with the help of a man (or at the very least, using his name to get a "foot in the door")



sorry for spoiling ur serious thread but umm aenigma dont worry you can use the name 'ramayan' whenever u need and u r really unlucky that there have been many females who daydream for this but after reading these words i decided to give u a help to keep you silent....(its secret but i also experienced many times or saw or heard that women are also preferred in many jobs ..we guys are also experiencing same things...but i claim that the male workers are in worse conditiions than their female colleagues.for example while a female worker have a table position in a factory a male worker having harders works but they are paid same ummmmm this is also not good...and we can say many more things..if it must be equal everything must be equal...like military service..i dont think the concept 'equity'' is so equal)

I just tried using your name - my boss has just fired me. He says if I am aquainted with such a lazy asshole he doesn't want to employ me anymore

I am afraid that Condoliza Rice is only there because it is convenient for George Bush, woman, black, in power! She is no more than one of his poodles. Remember the conversation had between Blair and Bush, that whould not have been heard?

As for sexism, that is just another word for political correctness gone mad.

By the way, I am a successful business woman, a Senior Manager in a family owned manufacturing company only reporting to the Director, and I have made my own way here.

Do you think today many women are struggling to be equal to men in nature instead of struggling to have equal rights, equal employment opportunities etc?

I don't think women are struggling to be like men in nature ...just that they want their achievements to be recognised in line with their male colleagues, and to receive the according salary.

I can't stand Condelezza Rice, but I have to beg to differ. Her knowledge of several languages, education level, prior accomplishments, leadership ability and public speeching skills should NOT be overlooked because of her political association. Yes, she is a political pond just like EVERY man in G.W. Bush's cabinet, advisory board, and his appointed Supreme Court Judges. To pick on her and say she needed a man because she is a woman is SEXISM! You should also be pointing out that every man associated with G.W.Bush is used by him and has used him to get something as well! Double standards should not be tolerated!
