Hard News: A wretched editorial, in reply to Sacha,
Sacha, you have been fortunate.
the sort of shit that a lot of men say when no women are present can be eye-wateringly misogynist. Their primary defense is usually "I was only joking" to which I say "but it's what you choose to joke about"
I can roughly tag openly racist talk being cut to the Satchi "racists have smaller brains" billboard campaign, that was about the time that these guys clicked that it was no longer acceptable.
It seems to me that misogyny is still in that pre-change phase but the boys onsite have learned that if they try that kind of crap on around me then they'll get the shittiest job I can think of for the rest of the day. -

Hard News: Moving right along?, in reply to Heather Gaye,
The cognitive dissonance. It is strong with this one.
