> I'm an oh-so-privileged white male I must have had a ridiculously easy life
Been waiting for that privilege to kick in yet... however, after reading all those articles about women in tech and realizing that a) I tend to not negotiate and avoid conflict b) terrified (for my family's wellfare) of confronting my boss when I feel I'm being unjustly compensated\treated, c) shitting my pants when the next round of layoffs is leaked and d) being an introvert makes me not speak up as much in meetings to 'establish dominance', maybe I'm a woman after all?
- Fraztastic 10y agoMaybe put the slightest bit of effort into researching this. Look at yourself. You got the job, right? You don't want to admit this to yourself, but it was easier for you than a woman.
- Oxitendwe 10y agoDo you have any idea how insulting and dismissive you sound? You know nothing about the circumstances of his hiring, how can you possibly say his real and concrete experience was easier than that of some hypothetical woman?

- danso 10y agoWhat evidence would satisfy you?
