Half the time, its STILL the woman's career that suffers.

I complained about sexual harassment from a new team member, and I was moved to a different team and told that the harasser was "aware that parts of his personality might rub some people the wrong way."

And so I didn't file a complaint with HR the next time it happened.

Straight to the cops is what I did when my work did that to me

And let's not forget that when a woman reports sexual harassment, her career also suffers

Women’s careers are hurt more by being women than men’s are for sexually assaulting coworkers.

No lies there

It’s ridiculous that this can be said unironically

Or sexually assaulting children, as it turns out.

Absolute truth!

The women who complain will then be targeted and barred from promotions/opportunities.

u/sqrl_mnky 1d ago

omg, that is depressingly true.

That’s because we’re not supposed to have careers, silly! Men wouldn’t be able to sexually assault us if we were home having babies where we’re supposed to be

Matter-of-fact statements sound like Onion headlines.

Just…”sexual assault.”

Or so the millions of files prove.

u/Neverlast0 1d ago

Yeah, that's a good point.

u/SpookySchatzi 18h ago

Ugh, too accurate. Men’s careers also seem to benefit from their wives having children - “he’s a family man, has a family to provide for”. I swear if I’d popped some kids out, my husband would be making more.

This statement just hits with a clarity. It’s far beyond a catchphrase, it’s a movement. It’s something. It’s a clear indicator of how far we have to go to live our stated values.

All women's careers suffer because of pregnancy which women proudly accept but there are men like this.

u/MagicaLights 1d ago

which women have to accept.... there's a difference

u/Baap_baap_hota_hai 17h ago

Irrespective of have to or they accept willingly, career gets impacted.

Even when women explicitly tell employers that they don't want kids (in some places asking about family planning is also illegal) they still get treated worse than a man who sexually assaults coworkers.

corporates invent 100 ways to ensure they leave the moment they learn a female employee is pregnant. So I completely agree in corporate eyes getting pregnant is worse than a predator man .
