      "Advocating a do-it-yourself approach to on-the-job equality may actually be a kind of gaslighting...It’s the society we operate in that needs fixing, not how we ask for money, the tone of our voices, or our outfits." https://qz.com/work/1363399/all-career-advice-for-women-is-a-form-of-gaslighting/amp/?__twitter_impression=true … h/t @Farzad_MD

      In @winnerstakeall, I write about how women are told to "lean in" and in various other ways make sexism their problem, not ours. Its a classic example of how the winners of our age prefer cheap forms of social change -- as opposed to ones that would cost them (and actually help).

          But it never occurred to me that this kind of neoliberal advice-giving can actually be thought of as a form of psychological abuse. Thank you, @el72champs, for your insight.

          Got your book yesterday at an awesome local bookstore. They can't keep it on the shelf. Got the last one. Can't wait to dig in. Congrats on pushing boundaries.

          When I was working in Corporate America I was told not to be better at being a man than the men were. That it would piss them off. I wouldn't be promoted if I didn't act like I fit in but I couldn't be seen as doing it better. I eventually left...

          My Mother, Grandmothers, and Great Aunt were highly successful business women who married and had children. My daughters and I own businesses. We have successful careers and families. Role models are important
