Word got back to Melissa a guy she did a project with said she's "difficult to work with." We know why he'd say that – she didn't go along with a lot of what he wanted as it was foolish & uninformed. He was the incompetent one, but now, because she's an assertive woman, she's the bitch who (cont.)

it sucks to work with. While if she tells people he's a pain they'll laugh it off or ignore it. This is how men control women & hold them back from success. This is how patriarchy is maintained.

I’m so sorry Melissa was subjected to this unconscionable behavior.
He was challenged and threatened by her intelligence, her ideas, and her knowledge. I commend her assertiveness, but know how hurtful this can be.
She took an important step toward eradicating patriarchy; it’s how we fight back.

Be great if she could muster up a meeting to present both of their ideas, so everyone can discover what an asshat this guy is.

Have you suggested to her that she “smile more?” It’s almost guaranteed to resonate with this guy 😒.

I always wonder what the answer is to this. I suppose start seriously dismissing men, like they have done to women for ages, in this type of culture we have in NA and Europe. Maybe use the same language men use.
You can't play nice when one side is always playing rotten.

I think that’s a tactic that can work if the woman has a certain amount of power, but most times it just backfires in my experience. I don’t know how we end the dynamic either, but I do think something like this can work if enough people (not just women) start dismissing the incompetent men.

We do not have to be bigger asses than they are. We just have to hold our ground and support initiatives that feature more balance. ESG is a thing, the G is for governance. Women make the majority of purchase decisions. If women check out corp wiki page and buy from those with balanced boards. Vote$
