Boys will be boys!

Sad to say, but that’s a familiar story.

It’s great that you’re now making efforts to right that sort of wrong now!

Please give her a hug from me. And if you happen to get a chance to stab her supervisor … well, I’ll not say do it, because that would be illegal. But sometimes accidents happen …

Yeah, that’s the thing, the majority if guys are OK or better … it’s just there’s enough arseholes to hold women and minorities back when there’s no or unenforced DEI

It’s very hard to not be polite when that’s how you’re raised to be from day one :-/

They break up a lot quicker if you run over them with a mower, which can also spread out the bits leaving a tidier looking lawn, thus keeping the HOA happy (maybe)

Yuuup. Woman in engineering here. I once had a supervisor whose behaviour I thought of as normal, but two guys I worked with separately reported him to HR for bullying after seeing how he treated me.

It’s funny, I had many years with almost no career progression, now my boss is a woman and I’m having to get used to the idea that bonuses and promotions are things that actually happen when I work hard.

I had that with a contractor who had had my number for work purposes. He kept trying for 5 years.

I’m a butch lesbian, my mistake was being polite and chatty with him.

Split the difference - VIC-64

(Think of it as a proto-C128)

Edit: also, that’s a Commodore monitor with the weird inputs … though I thought they were all grey. I need to get a life …

Hi, I’m a left wing rather than right wing idiot. The BBC has proved itself an unreliable source plenty of times. They’re beholden to political influence (see today’s story about one of their staff not being allowed to talk about heat pumps because it’s a “political issue”)

Yeah, wouldn’t want the UK or Hungary to start making legal moves against LGBT people …

Gender non-conforming lesbian here … this is totally going to be used against people like me, too.

I feel so sorry for young queers in the UK having to grow up with these sorts of attitudes, when I was at school it was Section 28 and I genuinely thought we’d got past that, but the fascist bigots never sleep!

Examples given in the media have been access to domestic violence help, changing rooms, support for rape victims, and clubs for gold-star lesbian arseholes who nobody in their right mind would want to be near anyway.

Take a Bow by Muse works almost too perfectly, too
