Completely aside:... As another successful woman in tech, yes, there is. A very simple thing. Whenever you hear your colleagues make a misogynist remark, call them out on it. Yes, I realize many of them are meant as funny asides, but here's the problem: They still hurt. We get that they're usually not meant offensive, but it's simply not funny if you're on the receiving end of those "jokes". Every single one of them is a cut to the confidence and willingness of women in this field. I know you want to focus on the positive, and I apologize for dragging in a negative instead. To be clear, nobody requires you to be a knight in shining armor, riding to our rescue ;) But it'd sure be nice to occasionally hear an "You know what, dude? Not cool. Not cool at all" when those remarks come out. |
