... You're just going to talk about men the whole time.
I work in STEM and attended a women's network meeting that recently started up. They laid out their aims to challenge pay disparity and unconscious bias etc etc and all that good stuff.
What annoyed me was that this came after a 5 minute speech about how great it was 2 men attended, how their input is so important and that this is open and inclusive to all genders and they want men and trans people to feel safe and welcomed. Forgot to mention a welcome to the women and then made a ridiculous remark about football (ha ha ha we like football too - we're just like men, isn't that great )
Was I naive to hope for a little feminism in a women's network???
My company desperately needs these issues addressing but it feels as if they're being so open minded they're at risk that their brains will fall out.
