Question for my male followers who've read the Uber blogpsot— The leather jacket story in the blogpost seems to really stand out to men.

don't be shy now, this is a rare opportunity in which i have actually invited you to @ me
-
thread is good. I find it strange when men fixate on the leather jacket thing, but there *is* one thing about it that bugs me.
-
There's just no fucking way the men at Uber didn't notice the leather jacket thing.
-
And they didn't say anything?

I don’t know if it stood out to me from the rest of the awfulness, or stood out to me as a man, but …
-
… it manages to be awful on so many levels at once that it’s a kind of shining shit-crystal of ideal Platonic workplace sexism.
-
(1) The confused understanding of “equality.” It’s not equal outcomes (jackets for all); it’s not equal effort (spend same $)...
-
… no, it’s some kind of Newspeak equality in which it’s somehow “equal” not to even make an effort for women.
-
(2) Why do they even have this problem in the first place? Because of their own terrible record at hiring women!
-
(3) Wait a minute. Leather jackets? That right there is another telling sign about your workplace “culture.”
-
Plus it has the specificity to be a synecdoche for everything else.

It's the "meet our new employee morale manager, Franz Kafka" moment

"you're getting equality by getting nothing" was stunningly hostile and absurd

Slights like that reveal the constant meanness of a culture. Like “forgetting” people’s names or not inviting them to meetings.

But it didn’t stand out to be as Big Significant in relation to the other godawful stuff.
