I go to meetings with 20 people nowadays and 17 of them are women. In 10-15 years when the old men in the top spots are gone, women will run this industry in all facets. The only areas that are still male-dominated are the technical positions in production, but my office is 70% women and we are a large firm.

I was turned down (temporarily) for an advertising director position because I was a woman. Men who did the same work as I in the retail store were paid twice as much. It was almost enough to turn me into a woman's libber, but not quite enough. ;-)

I hope you have a bright and rewarding future in the business. It is cutthroat, to say the least, but I hope that talent and work ethic win out these days.
