It's an intricate puzzling situation, with light-year's of institutional support via other institutions not addressing the problematic issue of sex discrimination within the workplace or the cross-over effect from organization to organization in America. It's troubling and my heart goes out to you.... and women in general. It's so ingrained institutionally that even my own mother fails to see how this has affected her. It makes me sad. It makes me fucking angry. It's disappointing. Thanks for sharing about the troubling issues you face in your workplace environment, HappyFemme.

Thank you so much for sharing your story Katzchen. It really is such a bad situation.
