I think you should try working a job in the construction industry... any job.

  not OP but I've worked construction for a while as well and while blue collar workers tend to be a lot more vulgar, you know not a lot of high society filters and so on, actually I think genuine misogyny and abuse of women is way worse in white collar work. First off there's simply way fewer women in blue collar work, and if they are there's no real hierarchy. Blue collar workers don't have secretaries. The stories I've heard from women who were harassed over years at startups or law firms, in particular secretaries or women in other jobs that had lower status is something else.

  Reports of sexism in the software field seem pretty common, but that's tough to square with what also seems like a uniquely high tolerance for trans people (moreso than in other field, as far as it seems).
