I work on a small, all male team. They're good guys but the way they talk about women *in front of me* is so demoralising. 1/2
The Trump tape...Do you know how real this is for women? That we never know who talks like this after we leave a room? I feel so sick. Sick.

I am very sorry. That’s SO draining.
-
Yep. And what gets me is that they really are good guys! It's just such an ingrained/normalised way of thinking I guess :(
-
and it’s just wrong. Sigh. And so demoralizing.
-
I work in TV so maybe the industry culture is partially to blame. But it's everywhere in varying degrees. Hopefully not forever.

I hope not

If it makes you feel any better, I've been in a lot of locker rooms and have never heard anything this bad.
-
that honestly helps. Thank you.

Trump is sui generis in so many ways.
-
and yet the person he was talking to did nothing to check him. Sigh. I do think he's an outlier... but not alone.
-
Agreed. There are plenty of assholes out there and you're right to point out that not enough decent people speak up against it.

I hear you. I have never needed an episode of Jane the Virgin more.

I'm so sorry about that.

- Me, too. I still have the talking doll one boss gave me, replete with 6 different sexist sayings.

@moryan "This is just guys being guys! Having guy talk!" NOT REASSURING. -
I know of no men who talk like that. We are all real men-husbands, fathers, professionals.
-
I believe you! I truly do. And yet millions support him. I don't get it.

no idea. We have a yoga doing, canoeing, feminist 21st century man as our PM. So, I don't get it either.
