Are we supposed to conclude that men never feel isolated, alone, or struggle to mentor others? She describes very common feelings and struggles related to working in a corporate environment, and then blames them on her gender.
This made leaving tech her only option, since she can't change who she is. Had she been a little less quick to assign sexism to fairly common struggles, perhaps she could have explored ways to effectively address those feelings.
- kaitai 13y agoDidn't you read the article? She addresses exactly the point that men feel isolated, alone, and struggle to mentor others in paragraph 7. She also addresses your idea that she "blames [it] on her gender." Please respond to the article under discussion rather than a similar, but different, article.
- overgryphon 13y agoYes, which of course she attributes to men's problems with needing attention from women who understand them.
