Fast Company:

LeanIn.org and SurveyMonkey just released the results of a survey on the state of men and women interacting in the workplace in the age of #MeToo. The results are frustrating. The data reveals that 60% of male managers say they are uncomfortable performing common workplace activities such as mentoring, working one on one, or socializing with a woman. That's a 32% increase over last year.

To add insult to insult, senior-level men who were surveyed are now far more hesitant to spend time with junior female colleagues than junior male ones, across a range of basic work activities. The men were 12 times more likely to hesitate to have one-on-one meetings, nine times more likely to hesitate to travel with a junior woman for work, and six times more likely to hesitate to have a work dinner with a junior woman.

(Emphasis from original retained.)

A 32% increase in one year is a dramatic social trend.

    If you do not know the difference between "shear" and "sheer", maybe you are a male chauvanist pig, and deserve all you get.

    Hahahahahahahaha OMG. I'm laughing so hard I can barely type. You know what, buddy? You really, really, really ought to proofread your own post before hitting "submit" if you're gonna slam somebody for a typo or grammatical error.

    It's spelled, "chauvinist."

    It's true I am a mail chauvinist, though; I refuse to send parcels via regular post.

    I suspect it's Ari. He always slips in a further error, just to see if you are paying attention.
