Why would anyone in a position of power hire a woman knowing she could blackmail him or get him fired with a fake charge.
Why isn’t she complaining about government jobs such as teachers with good pensions and benefits that are predominantly filled by women?
Business is based on personal relationships, and why should any male business owner trust a woman? He has too much to lose. Loose lips sink businesses.
You can't treat them like a friend, because that means honesty, and you have to judge every syllable out of your mouth, for fear it might be misinterpreted.
Only the naive would think not.

Last year, I said to a client ( a female) who brought her assistant (also a female) to a meeting with a potential: Does your assistant have a blazer or anything to wear on top of her inappropriately low cut blouse?
The client told me she didnt’ know what to do and couldn’t directly say anything. She specifically told me this assistant was given to her as she to gone HR and complained about two male superiors commenting on her dress style as not being business like.
Honestly, over the decades I’ve been involved in various businesses, I have always noticed that the women who dress provocatively do so with purpose.
Men wear a uniform, it’s called a suit. It can’t be sexualized, beyond its inference as a symbol of power.
At least in the 80’s women were on board for this and the female power suit was born. Today, women come to meetings in dresses more appropriate to a cocktail party... and yet the wonder why people don’t take them seriously?
So now young women are moaning that men won’t hire them because they are a liability. They won’t be abused while they are unemployed.
Yes.
Too bad. Does anyone in a position of responsibility in any of these companies give a sh!t?

Women have taken over the retail banking business. Branch banks are all women
Women are cheap and can be programmed to follow the extensive list of rules to the letter.
Branch banks are where women are in total control
Obviously a man would have to be completely stupid to hire a female in this kind of witch hunting social and legal environment. #MeToo attaches so much risk to hiring females that no matter how productive the worker, she cannot offset this liability.
“When men say that they’re afraid of being alone with women, what they’re actually saying is that there is a high likelihood that all women are crazy and will read something into a situation that isn’t intended.”
Bingo.
I do startups. I ain’t hiring anybody but robots.
Sexual harassment is currently defined as involving “making of unwanted sexual advances”. The implicit assumption is that the guy should know, in advance, whether the advances will be unwanted. The definition grants far too much power to women, and the result is men taking steps to reduce their vulnerability.
There is a similar dynamic operating in the marriage sphere, with more men being wary of the power women have to destroy them in divorce court.
In both cases, men decide that putting themselves into a vulnerable position with a woman is not worth the risk.

But enough about Me, what do you think about Me?
Thank goodness I am no longer part of the “work force”. As much as I love women, there is no way I would hire or work with them, given the “pound me too” mindset today. No way!
Glad the writer brought up the “perceptions of behaviors”. This alone can get a man fired and I think is more dangerous than anything. A look, a word, casual conversation could get a man in trouble in a heartbeat.
She lost me at “Darwin.”
Probably hurts them across all employment opportunities. Caring companies will be double guessing and non-caring companies just will hire men.
I’ve been in big organizations where truly ugly women seduced fat ugly bosses.
Talk about ego elevation. Don’t dare say anything negative about the absolute **** secretaries the boss’ squeeze hires. Oh, and never mind they were both married.
In the other, FatBoy’s equally fat ugly wife was leaving him, and there’s no way in hades any decent looking woman would want him. So he takes up with ugly cowgirl, who’s ex was a rodeo clown. Get the picture?
Next thing we all know, she’s drunk at Girls Night Out (on the firm’s AMEX card) and telling everyone who’s going to get fired soon.
Eventually upper management had no choice but to run them off as the numbers of quality employees they had run off became too great to bear.
It’s doing to women what McCabe and Comey and company did to the FBI - making the whole look bad because of the “leaders” (activists)...
Identity politics will hurt anyone who embraces the ideology in normal companies and businesses. All the snowflakes need to go to Twitter, Google and Facebook. They will run them out of business.
