That's true.. in the name of Patriarchy man can't even cry

Hmm aap hi ki permission ka intzaar tha :)

Equally is an overstatement, maybe 5% of what women go thru

@WhatsThePoint I would suggest you read this book Self-Made Man: My Year Disguised as a Man .

Software Engineer

The moment men born, they get responsibility, onus is on you to clear loans, get a new home, sister marriage, sibling college fees. Not for everyone but majorly this applies.

Senior Data Engineer

How confident are you in this statement? Can you put that into number? 5 for super confident, no doubts and 1 for not so confident, have a lot of doubts.

Shoot your doubts, let see what you have. 
 I'm 95% confident on the statement, someone said women have it worse.

What needs to happen for this confidence to go up?

My brother/sister forgot the world is a shade of grey and not absolutes :(

patriarchy is as fake as capitalism and communism. 
  
 society is as patriarchal as it is matriarchal

there is no name for what men go through, that's why we only talk about "patriarchy"

It makes sense to use that word because it is puts men on pedestal, not talking about the downsides of it

Senior Software Engineer

Because it's unpopular, I am sure you will have data points to back your claim. Really curious to understand those

Business Analyst

Patriarchy= पितृसत्तात्मकता 
  
 Wait what? I still didn't get it

Patriarchy is what puts men on a pedestal and looks down on women as second gender. But men aren't enjoying this as much, they have high standards to reach, cannot relax, cannot step back and process emotions.

Patriarchy is a double edged sword where the woman is impacted by  
  
 1. Looking down on her in certain aspects and considering her inferior to men. Faced by 80% women. 
  
 2. For men who have feelings, cries, failures whatnot the answer is only one !!! " You're a guy and not a girl " . Society treats guys as if they can be unwaveringly tough, blind to emotion etc and girls as Servile, Need to be protected kinda stuff.

A Man has lot more responsibilities than women. Family, career, love. 

Why do Men mental health being so ignored. We don't share like women do but we are going through a lot. We are not expressive by nature. 

Our society shows so much love, respect to women why not same for MEN? Why aren't they treated equal?

What do you guys feel?

Why do our society don't value MEN MENTAL HEALTH?

The boss energy 🤌

I'm fairly new to this platform, but in last week I have seen posts appreciating men and celebrating women

The posts have comments from men demeaning their own.
I don't understand why. Who taught us to be like that?

I am a man, I have vulnerable self doubt thoughts, but I would never put down another human (any gender)

Is it something common on this platform?

[Controversial] Why are men getting hurt by men and women alike?

I guess I am against most of people who live in Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai or any tier 1 2 cities. Why is there so much addiction to smoke, party culture and losing our own moral values? I guess a pack of cigar cause anywhere between 100 to 200 and weekend party anywhere perhead to 2000. If you sum up I see that it goes to 10k overhead. Dont you think that money can go into useful way of either personal development or contributing giving back to the society? What are we losing here and where are the moral values that are taught to us going? To add on so much hookups and adult life. There is nothing to gain but so much to lose I guess. Please add your opinions...

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I have had over 8-10 managers in my life in a career spanning over 8 years, 5 of them were female managers and unfortunately the experience with 4 of them were very bad. They’re either micro managers, or power hungry, want to be dominant over male juniors, misuse their power, cannot take any kind of resistance or refusals or disagreement from juniors.

I have always heard female managers are more empathetic but unfortunately I’ve faced the opposite. Just wondering, was it just bad luck or is it actually the case?

I tried to introspect in this and I found at least 4 points common across all these female managers:

1. They are all from Tier 2/3 Cities
2. They’ve studied in premier institutions IIT,IIMS,Wharton even one of them
3. They either have a younger or elder brother who got more love in the family
4. Their husband is at a higher senior level than them in professional life/career

Unpopular Opinion: Female Managers are Dominating

I have found females in corporate are much more opportunistic and shrewd than men. They think that is the only way to rise. Yet to encounter an empathetic female in jobs.

I have seen pseudo feminism happening everywhere around which has just wasted everyone’s time and energy over debating for false narratives. Does feminism really matter or it brought any change in corporate lives. If yes then why still pay parity exist and why projects have been given on the basis of gender but not on the basis of skill and experience? What’s your take on this ?

Has feminism ever been useful ?

Where do you folks fall in this complicated venn diagram?

The much awaited numbers are out!

And these so called feminists talk about dowries all the time. What hypocrisy.

Is it just me or is even a job at the best Tech companies just don’t make any sense for women? 

There are always women who have great family support or husbands that are understanding and encouraging. But generally why does it seem like becoming a senior woman in tech even at the best places is sort of unattractive and significantly increases your odds of “failure” outside of work e.g. divorce,having kids late? 

Interested for thoughts from both men and women.

27F Engineer: Software Engineering Not Worth It For Women?

Hmm, someone I know has more than 10+ patents(ex-broadcom), is a tech evangelist and an implementation advisor for a cloud tech, have 3 kids with fourth on the way. Sometimes you just need a supportive environment.

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

Many are already planning to do exactly this

This is not even a joke!

Just like Rick Sanchez said:
Worse, you're smart. When you know nothing matters the universe is yours, and I've never met a universe that was into it. The universe is an animal, it grazes on the ordinary. It creates infinite idiots just to eat them, You know, smart people get a chance to climb on top and take reality for a ride but it'll never stop trying to throw you. And eventually it will, there's no other way off."

You know who are the idiots in the ss above.

Doesn't matter the gender. There are always people who choose to take the easy way out. 

But tell me one thing? What is more fun?
Being rich because of someone else or Being rich for the impact you create.

Your answer here tells you more about yourself.
