                  1. I expended a lot of emotional energy at google dealing with the fact that many of my male colleagues did not see women as human beings. SarahNEmerson/893714563144613888

                  It’s clear that despite the expensive Diversity as Performance Art initiatives, little has changed.

                I cannot tell you how exhausting it is to go to work in an environment where you feel like you have to justify and defend your humanity.

              And for all we talk about how these people are in the "minority" there are enough of them. Just one can make many women miserable at work.

            Then let's talk about the tactic acceptance. Because that is the worst and loneliest of all. Men you liked but now can't respect.

          Because you know when it comes to it they might not "personally agree" but they will see some points he made, tell you not to be emotional.

        One time I found the word "whore" in a design doc. The guy who wrote it, whatever. His manager commented "sigh". I thought that was worse.

      Afaik the dude who wrote it got a talking to. Nothing happened to his manager. I expect they both still work there.

    Know who else still works there last I heard? A dude who bullied multiple women (incl me) and called me a c***. "minority? Or "prevalent"?

      Anyway under indexed folk at google: you deserve a better environment than this. If you think I can help you find it, my DMs are open.

        Liberal white men: stop allowing the humanity of people who are not white men to be up for debate. Insist on it as a premise, please.
