I agree totally. When I was attending TAMU and someone found out I had been in the Navy, immediately I was considered to be a whore. I mean, that’s why women join any service, right?
And it didn’t stop there...as I finished my DVM and then my PhD and then became a faculty member and was asked to be part of various committees, several faculty said they knew I got the coveted position as a committee member because I had gone to bed with the President of the University. I almost upchucked.
Women are badly treated overall in the USA sociologically and monetarily. Maybe we ought to do something about that...unfortunately I wasn’t very successful as the Lone Ranger. Being called a windger isn’t too nice, either.
If that went on at Texas A & M, one of the most conservative campuses in the country, I can’t even imagine how bad it must be at places like Cal or Harvard.
