Do any male journalists get daily "can you hand over all your editors' details so I can pitch to all the places you write for" messages, or is that pleasure solely reserved for women who dare take up men's slots in the media?
Every day I get the first one, the second one is older men complaining they don't feel their amazing article was afforded enough veneration by editors and seem to want me to do something about it when I am both busy, and never make the kind of fuss/demands on editors they do

I can sort of almost nearly understand the first one if it's people who can't get hired just flailing around abjectly, but moaning after you've succeeded in being published... yowza

Most recent one had been very senior in government. Expected me to read and retweet his article and sent me roughly 700 words on WhatsApp complaining. Absolutely furious.
