You were very brave to do this, and unfortunately, the double standard between men and women in the workplace is something very real. There should be more women speaking out about these things in the workplace, and maybe, just maybe, some things would start to change.

I totally agree. I told someone yesterday who asked. My goal is not only to say out loud what women are experiencing but to help those just getting started understand how to navigate it all.

“I said it because I was done performing the role of the team player who keeps her mouth shut while the team keeps taking.” You are setting an excellent example for readers. I applaud you for standing up for yourself and other women.

Well done for speaking up. It’s sad that when women do we get a backlash. It also strikes me as odd that for all the bluff and bravado not one man was willing to do the same! Go you 🙌
