Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Working at a hospital: "Are you the nurse?" No, keep guessing.

...oh so a secretary then. Sorry I just assumed because of the stethosvope and scrubs. You guys are so important. Can you point me towards a doctor?

I feel for every woman in a high leveled job. Being assumed for reception, secretary, things, so much suck after going through all the work!

More are needed. Bingo is 5x5,this is 4x4.

Hence the solicitation.

Something about it being that time of the month seems obligatory.

Saying something that gets ignored which is then 30 seconds later repeated by a man (who is brilliant for it)–needs some punch-up to fit on the card. 'Man applauded for rephrasing you' or to hyperbole 'man promoted for your idea'?

'Naturally cautious' or 'not bold enough' (from a guy with a prius and a consumer reports subscription, while i still have a broken finger, tear gas in my lungs, and acid in my csf from the previous evening)

Add in "She's too indirect" directly below the "She's too direct".

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago

"We need her where she is"

If a company ever says this, you are underpaid

“Oh sorry I forgot to add you to [meeting about thing you own]”

Or doesn’t take you seriously by doing this: “doesn’t like your answer so goes behind your back to ask a male colleague who gives the same reply which is respected”

She's too friendly.

She's a bitch.

She prioritizes her children.

She can't drive.

She gets paid too much.

She can't be promoted, she's only good as an assistant.

She uses too much make up.

She doesn't dress nice enough.

She would be better bent over.

People must be real fucking sexist at your workplaces because I believe I've never heard any of these said at mine.

[–] anthropomorphized@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

She's trying to take over

Watch out for her
