From ieee
Female IEEE members say they face significant discrimination in the workplace, including demeaning comments, inappropriate job-interview questions, and exclusion from networking events and important business meetings.
Those were among the most common negative experiences reported by more than 4,500 members—associate member grade and above—from around the world who answered a survey IEEE conducted in 2017. The results were released last year.
Almost half of those surveyed worked in academia, and about 30 percent were from private industry. The rest worked for governmental or nonprofit institutions, or were graduate students or self-employed. The majority of respondents (65 percent) lived outside the United States.

I can't even tell if you get the irony in your post or if you're genuinely that hypocritical.
If a cat has kittens, does a rat have rittens, a bat bittens and a mat mittens?

AC is being observant. You are being hypocritical. The number of men who jump on to defend the feminine has almost 1 to 1 relationship with men who get offended for being called effeminate.

Got a citation? Large intestines don't count. FWIW offense can be given as well as taken, you know.

So long as you don't pull it out of your ass.
