What a load of absolute twaddle. Creating groups like “Pink Mentor Network” only serves to divide males and females further.

Moreover, do you ladies want to know why you aren’t taken seriously in the work place? Take a look at yourself; make up applied with a spatula, high heels and a cocktail dress. The smartest people I know don’t care at all about how they look, if they have presentable clothes on then they’re happy. Women seem to make everything a fashion show or a beauty pageant, and in any STEM field you will be laughed at behind your back at every step of the way.

Join the ranks by all means, but when you get there don’t act like a 6 year old playing junior school politics and thinking how you look is more important than what you do. No one cares about anything other than your work output, so put down your egos, put down the makeup trowel, roll your sleeves up and do some damned hard work.

Lastly, any word on women seeking equal employment in fields like mining, utilities or anything else which requires one to get extremely dirty or even risk their lives? Anyone?

Thought so, CEO or nothing, right? lmfao. Example number (2) of why we laugh at a vast majority of you ladies!
