I manage a few people, some older men. I have noticed that when they speak, people listen. Gush. Thank you soooo much for your time. When I speak, they just expect it. Doing my job. Obviously.

One of the guys is new, not that good tbh, he's getting there. He says wrong things very confidently, in that way. And I find when I try to (diplomatically) correct the position, I'm disbelieved. I have to actually convince them that he's the wrong one.

This never happens with the women I manage (although the women are rarely Confident But Wrong).

I am worried it's becoming a fixation of mine and I might start overreacting. I can't change the world or this frustrating baked in sexism but how do I handle it?

Charismatic dude captures everyone's attention despite her attempts to passive aggressively diplomatically tell people how wrong he is.

Welcome to patriarchy.

Youre right and I have been in the game too long and am too cynical. But you are absolutely right. Mediocre men still get promoted far faster than stellar women. Because patriarchy.

We must stop the patriarchy from making men so socially competent.

I have never stopped to think of this before, but you are right. When I look back, the people I have known who were just incompetent or inadequate at their jobs, were all men. I've haven't known a single women who was as bad as any of these men. All these men had no insight into their own inadequacy, with most of them being full of bluster and they also loved criticising others behind their backs.

Yes the idea that women are "the bitchy ones" is bullshit ime

hate how women always get labelled as the bitchy ones. Let's make a thread to b-word about it.

I'm not known for diplomatically correcting a subordinate, male or female. I simply say it how it is. I found being blunt and direct (communicate like a man) gets me the respect.

The rare foid who discovers that not communicating via vague, indirect, ambiguous hints actually gets shit done.

I keep worrying that respecting men is evolved into us (like how toddlers respect the voices of men more). But I guess we can reason our way out of stuff.

That worrying moment when your inner chud starts to make sense

Ideas? I say we doxx him and then show up at his place with cacti to repeatedly shove up his butt

1. They're stinky

2. They can't walk straight

3. They talk shit

4. They're broke from buying booze all the time

5. They can't handle responsibilities

6. They're loud

7. They're male feminists

8. They're a burden on our healthcare system

9. They drive drunk and kill people

10. They act stupid and reckless

When I was 13, Sean Chiplock (@SeanChiplock) aka @VAsonicmega attempted to groom a 15 year old trans boy. That person was my friend. But he left the internet, so the only person left to tell the story is me. 🧵

"Strong armies," warned Sergii Marchenko, Ukraine's finance minister, on June 17th, "must be underpinned by strong economies."

announced on June 13th, to use Russian central-bank assets frozen in Western financial institutions to lend another $50bn.

They looking legal way to punish Hungary for not wanting to commit an illegal shit like there is just no legal way to take Russian money. Russia didn't signed any contract letting EU take Russian money and giving it to someone else and if bank had such contract nobody would had used those banks and banks are build on trust. Best part US ain't going to touch Russian assets because US ain't r-slur so it send EU to commit and banking suicide.

People also don't understand Russia is poorer than EU that automatically would mean EU has more investment in Russia than the other way and Russia will easily gets its money worth back + not getting any rep damage.

If EU legit takes the frozen assets, EU will be send to even greater lost decade

There is my 11x17 sign by the Colgate Palmolive Pride sponsor tent. This was my second time going out to NYC Pride and the area with all the corporate pride swag is always hilarious to me. I grabbed everything that caught my eye or made me laugh

I think the highlights here are the PrEP pop socket, the little flyer advertising "anal and vaginal dilators", and the postcards that say METH and COCAINE
