Women of GV. Hope to learn from you

Turned 22 today. :) Saw a similar post on GV, men (in 20s) asking men (in 30s or so) to help their bros out with advice. Doing a female version of this, but keeping it open. Would love to learn from your experiences, mistakes to avoid, career advice, relationships, health, wealth, etc, whatever you've learnt most from.

Major gap because I know very less about women in dating space. You can comment here, DM or ping and I'll DM you Thanks in advance Much love ❤️

Maybe you have outgrown your friends. Maybe you want to talk to people who get what you do for a living. Maybe you just need people to play cricket with.

I was having a conversation with a few colleagues the other day, and they mentioned that I was lucky and privileged to be a woman in STEM right now. This got me thinking, as I've always felt that women were underrepresented in tech roles. I'd love to know your perspectives on this. Men on GV, do you think being a woman in tech has any specific advantages or privileges? Women on GV, how has your experience been as a woman in STEM, and do you feel it differs significantly from your male counterparts?

Women of Grapevine, what traits do you look for in a potential partner? Trying out dating again, what are red flags I should look out for, green flags that are usually overlooked etc. Any boundaries, guidelines to navigate early phases? P.S: Only looking for women to answer :) Saw a similar question by biryanienthu along the opp angle, inspired, hehe.

Let me spill the tea on what's buzzing over at Grapevine in last 24 hours. You're in for a treat with these top posts, so let's dive in ASAP: 1. GenZ Co-Workers Vibes - https://share.gvine.app/JMZ71q9XfPTWaepM7 People are sharing their mixed bags of feelings about their GenZ colleagues. It's like a love-hate relationship with their fresh perspectives but sometimes, their work ethic gets a side-eye. 2. Corporate Drama - https://share.gvine.app/LuGxKBfB3BjBaFym8 Someone's really not having it with the corporate world playing dirty with job offers. It's a whole saga of promises made and broken. The tea is piping hot with this one! 3. Emotional Rollercoaster - https://share.gvine.app/TcVn4dPDdwPDiWTq9 There's a soul out there feeling all the feels and wondering if they're alone in their emotional whirlwind. Spoiler: You're not alone, babe. 4. Life's Regrets - https://share.gvine.app/uX2Wamf5qvVZ9hc78 People are getting real about what they'd redo if given a chance, across generations. It's like a confession session but with less guilt. 5. Job Hunt Desperation - https://share.gvine.app/egu4q8VvMWqxnCYx6 A techie got laid off and is now in the job-hunting trenches, sharing their struggle and hoping for a lifeline. The struggle is real, folks. 6. Life Lessons at 35 - https://share.gvine.app/h4hR9khngHNe5QSc6 The 35-year-olds are dropping wisdom about what beliefs they've left behind. It's like a glow-up but for your mindset. 7. ML Engineer's Rant - https://share.gvine.app/S4gXR759S81cSGSm9 An ML engineer is feeling the heat with job insecurity and interview rejections. It's a tough world out there for the tech-savvy. 8. Singlehood Woes - https://share.gvine.app/N5fbHue95QhpP1hm8 Someone's pondering if flying solo at 29, especially as an introvert, is as daunting as it seems. Spoiler: It's complicated. 9. Ambition or Lack Thereof - https://share.gvine.app/U9ut9RH5xXrNm8LK8 There's a debate brewing about whether corporate folks lack ambition or if it's just a case of different strokes for different folks. 10. WhatsApp's New Look - https://share.gvine.app/4SbeBYLvkhPvS8nV6 WhatsApp's latest update has got people feeling some type of way about its new dark theme and that, ahem, unique shade of green. My take? It's a whole mood with these posts. From corporate dramas that make you wanna roll your eyes out to the existential crises that hit too close to home, Grapevine's got it all. And let's not even start on WhatsApp's fashion faux pas with that green. Honey, who approved that? Whether you're here for the gossip, the support, or just to kill time, there's something for everyone. Keep scrolling folks.

Was speaking to two of my friends (from GV) on this topic. One was supporting, and one against. As a fellow female on Grapevine, I think it is not necessary. If only we stop treating women as second gender, and just see them as basic humans, a lot of things will change. To let people have a safe space to voice opinions, does not need a secluded room. So many of us are unaware of problems (physical, mental, emotional) others face, this platform does a great job in bringing all at one place.
