Things I’ve been told by men in the game industry over the last 10 years: - Smile more - You’re too emotional - I can see you’re getting mad - It’s fine if your shirt is too low, you’ll get more views that way - Do you even play games or do you just stand there and look pretty

- Your email was too abrasive - You’re being too pushy - You were put on this project because they expected you to fail - Are you single? - I bet you’re shit at games - That’s a dumb idea - You didn’t get the promotion (no reason)

If you or someone you know has said one of these things to a woman in the industry, whether it be game dev or content creator, think long and hard about it. And don’t fucking do it again.

Replying to @kgarsten
My career was in commercial construction - I can totally relate. Transitioning into Data Analysis - sad to see I'll be hitting that wall again.

I'm sorry you've had some of these things said to you, it's really demoralizing. It doesn't happen everywhere, fortunately - None of this came from my current job. You might find yourself in a great place where you're well respected. And if not - Demand that respect.
