pound me too is the worst thing that ever happened to women.
Men in the workplace are avoiding women in ALL 1:1 situations
Men are refusing to mentor women 1:1. They insist there be a woman present at all meetings. Men will not meet with women outside the workplace in any casual environment.
I have had a response to a similar post where a guy said he wont even make eye contact with women. And that is the best advice for men.
I can tell you that a few years ago I had an (attractive) new hire I spent time — a drink after work, completely professionally but gently friendly, where I advised and mentored her. Inside of 6 months she took my advice and was promoted. Today — NO WAY. She stays an entry level for years or more. I was giving her 40 years of experience.
The pound me too means that women will be with women and frankly, women still don’t understand how to balance drive with humility. Driven women come across as bitches because they are bitches. Frequently with a chip on their shoulder.
And of course we have MGTOW. Which reduces women to one night stands (with legal documents). Millennial women will probably be barren until it is too late. I hear that 40-something single straight guys (even ugly ones) are loving the attention they are getting from the ball-busting women who decided they would advance their career and just screw men as entertainment.
Ladies: It is STILL a man’s world.
So what was the advice you gave her?
