I experienced the same thing from men from El Salvador. Just different cultures. The only difference is I was the boss. They couldn't stand the fact that they worked for a female. After a long battle they realized I was not the enemy and we actually got along fine. Took awhile though.

Yeah, it's hard. It's real hard when you're a giantress like me too... with flame red hair! :P I walked in on the first day, and the guy I was going to be working for actually asked me: Are you sure you can do this job, you're such a girl! :D

Not only did I prove him wrong, I almost took his job in the process. But I got a better one at a much better place, and went on my merry way. :) Ya know... he *still* talks smack about me too when he comes across my resume. Twit.

It's funny, and they say that American men are sexist! :) I have seen it more and more from the Latin and South Asian cultures, but I still don't know how to handle it, rather than the golden rule. That works! :D
