Chauvinism
It saddens me to notice that it is very common, when dealing with men more than 50 years old, to find that they are the most unbelieavabe chauvinist pigs.
Apparently it is not acceptable to have a young woman in a position of power. How can it be? Having a young woman as a tutor, responsible or something you do or even as an important client that gives you a task way to complicated for a monkey to do?! It’s outrageous! Surely she should know where she stands and that she obviously isn’t competent or smart enough to understand how things work. ![]()
Unfortunately I had to deal with 3 of these specimens in the space of a week. And they are always incredibly stubborn people who you cannot convince that 2+2 is indeed 4. And they come up with the most unbelievable excuses!
It is very sad that a country that has gone so far in equality still harbours this kind of people! Unfortunately, given my temper, I have a very hard time dealing with this kind of people and my ‘position of power’ is not powerful enough for me to be able to tell them what they deserve and where they can stick their chauvinism!![]()
