That "women are outperforming men" is a bunch of drivel.
Women in the STEM fields? Let me tell you, outgoing, aggressive go-getters are frowned upon, discriminated again, marginalized, laid off, or outright fired.
"Act like a woman" and be less aggressive, and don't get promoted.
Act like a man, go for what you want? don't get promoted.
Marcia, you're not the only reader who holds that view! ;)
