> ‘Fixing’ women is itself a problem
That's been my experience as well with female bosses. The best ones I've had seemed genuine, and led in their own way. The ones that tried to act like males usually fed into the "confident women are bitches" stereotype because everyone could tell that they were insecure about being in charge, and tried to overcompensate by trying to emulate super aggressive alpha-male types. Males make the same mistake, but it feels like they get an opportunity to correct their behavior, whereas females don't get another chance once they are painted as "that bitch boss".
