I've had a long career and have been turned down for jobs many times before. It happens. But I've never felt discriminated against until now.

I had to walk away from my keyboard because your comment made me so angry.

You claim to want to help women, and yet the first time you think you might have been discriminated against your reaction is to write a blog post urging companies to avoid employing women so that better-qualified, better-experienced, you could get that job?

I'm urging companies to avoid overcompensating for one form of discrimination by engaging in another.
