A Glimpse Into a World Without Men
American Thinker ^ | 11/14/18 | Selwyn Duke

Posted on 11/14/2018 7:05:54 AM PST by Pining_4_TX

Ah, to have an all-female workplace, full of sugar and spice and everything nice and absent #MeToo turpitude and transgressions. Are you in, ladies? Well, before signing on that dotted line, you may want to consider the experiences of the sugar-and-spice girls at Sweden’s new Gender Equality Authority.

Yes, that sounds like what’s birthed when Orwell’s 1984 meets The Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death (Bill Maher’s most memorable movie), but it wasn’t mainly men being consumed in this bureaucracy. As Sweden’s FriaTider reports (auto-translated and corrected for grammar):

The New Gender Equality Authority has a leadership consisting of 100 percent women. Ten months after its inception, an internal report now reveals a work environment so bad that 70 percent of its employees are distressed enough to be at risk of ill health, reports Ekot.

The internal survey, Ekot also noted, shows in addition that a majority of the employees of the Gender Equality Authority suffer from sleep problems and “risk fatigue”.

Among other things, the women-dominated workplace is characterized by bullying and harassment, according to the survey.

Interesting. Please don't shoot the messenger, ladies. I have to say that my husband has had bad male bosses as well as female, so there are jerks of all kinds out there.

Nothing heavy will ever be lifted again as they’ll all be waiting in vain for a man to come along and do the job. Spiders will take over the world.

Both in telecom and defense industries, most women really don't like working for other women....with few exceptions.

I'm now retired, and that is my career experience.

not to mention that no jars will get opened, and stuff on the top shelf will simply remain there forever ...

There was a sci-fi novel/short story about this a couple of decades ago.

All the men on earth had died from some strange virus, and that left women alone.

They were able to continue the race thru cloning.

They eventually became more and more aggressive, just like men................

I remember when that intellectual giant Sally Field proclaimed that if women ran the world, there would be no wars. Horsecrap. They’d just be starting wars over sleights like mocking their shoes or complaining their butts looked fat in their dress.

Why would anyone shoot you?
It’s funny as hell, and matches up with my wife’s work experience in major southern hospital system.
Women are nasty to each other - much worse than men. Backstabbing and poisonous gossip are the preferred weapons.

This would be my worst nightmare. And truly no surprise to anyone who has worked in an environment where females out number males.

No thank you. Nope. Just . . nope.

I do not like female bosses, for some reason I have trouble communicating with them. Not so fond of the last two male bosses, one was nice, but dishonest. The current one is a super micromanager.

Actually, I do not like having a boss.

An all female workplace?
Better have really good leadership.

I bet if you ask a lot of women if they’d sign up to work in a place like that, a significant portion would be skeptical. Scheming “office politics”, alliances, and the occasional to frequent flaring of drama?

There are jerks of all kind, creed, race or gender. No one has a monopoly on it, but even if the stuff I alluded to above is more stereotype than reality, I am willing to guess that it’s a situation many women would be skeptical of joining.

Yes there are. Best manager / boss I ever worked for was a woman.

On the other hand, the worst manager / boss i ever worked for was also a woman.

And it would be Armageddon if two world leaders showed up wearing the same dress.

Dirty little secret: The sandbagging and backstabbing at female dominated workplaces goes on at a whole ‘nother level that what you can even believe.

You’d probably need a PhD in Sociobiology to understand why, but in my experience it is absolutely true.

Guys don’t have the energy nor inclination to settle every old score.

Having worked in Corp America the last 20 years, the women can be just as cut-throat as anyone. The female clerical staff can gang up and bully another woman they just don’t like.

Don’t get me wrong, the overwhelming number of women in my life are wonderful people, but they’re not all Angels.

Happily, the toilet seats will forever remain in their proper position.

And I’ll throw in the “what happens when their periods sync” bit of gasoline on this fire.

The air conditioning industry will collapse, and all offices will be 85+ F.

I worked as the Network Admin for a small, rural hospital from ‘94 until 2006. During my annual review with the CEO one year I told him the only way I would ever work anywhere with the female to male ratio like we had (about 10 to 1) was if it was a Nudie Bar.
