Fuck you. My employer does a lot of mentoring and similar shit for women. It doesn't do anything for others. That sucks. And then I hear women, who make more money and have better career options than me, bitch about how bad things are for them. And I'm all "what the fuck? You make a quarter million dollars a year and vacation all over the world and you're pissed because our employer isn't doing more for you?" On the inside. On the outside, I just nod, because nobody wants to be the chauvenistic asshole.
I'm convinced that people will always complain about their situation and assume that others have it easier. Hell, look at me. But, at some point, you've got to admit that most of the workplace discrimination against professional women is gone, daddy, gone. Not all of it, sure. And I can't see a lot of it, because I am a guy. But it's not 1960 anymore. I'm amazed about a law firm actually paying a man more because of family status. It's sad that that still happens. But don't try to be all Rosa Parks about your experience in the workplace, unless you can honestly look yourself in the mirror and say that you're getting screwed.
