Jun. 16, 2017 "The universal phenomenon of men interrupting women": Today I found this article by Susan Chira in the Globe and Mail. I like this article, because it's well- written. However, it did get me kind of angry reading this because it's about men being rude and interrupting women:
For women in business and beyond, it was an I-told-you-so day.
The twin spectacles Tuesday — an Uber board member’s wisecrack about women talking too much, and Senator Kamala Harris, Democrat of California, being interrupted for the second time in a week by her male colleagues — triggered an outpouring of recognition and what has become almost ritual social-media outrage.
Academic studies and countless anecdotes make it clear that being interrupted, talked over, shut down or penalized for speaking out is nearly a universal experience for women when they are outnumbered by men.
A few statistics show that the questions directed at Uber about how women fare in the workplace extend beyond one company, and indeed beyond Silicon Valley. Women make up 6.4 percent of Fortune 500 chief executive officers and 19.4 percent of Congress this year.
About a fifth of board members in Fortune 500 companies in 2016 were women, according to research conducted by Deloitte and the Alliance for Board Diversity.

After Arianna Huffington, an Uber director, spoke of how important it was to increase the number of women on the board, David Bonderman said that would mean more talking. He soon resigned from the board. Even in companies without notorious bro-cultures, however, women have had to struggle to feel heard and, as the numbers make clear, to advance to the top.
“I think every woman who has any degree of power and those who don’t knows how it feels to experience what Kamala Harris experienced yesterday,” said Laura R. Walker, the president and chief executive of New York Public Radio. “To be in a situation where you’re trying to do your job and you’re either cut off or ignored.”
Women in a wide range of industries, at all levels, offered hundreds of such examples in response to an invitation from The New York Times for people to share their personal experiences on Facebook.
“I can’t even count the number of times I’ve witnessed a woman being interrupted and talked over by a man, only to hear him later repeat the same ideas she was trying to put forward,” wrote one respondent, Grace Ellis. “I’d say I see this happen … two to three times a week? At least?”

Joyce Lionarons wrote, “My female boss told me she needed to allow each man to interrupt her four times before protesting in a meeting. If she protested more often, there were problems.”
Erica Brown wrote that she has worked for three months as a distiller. Virtually every time she goes to pick up supplies, she said, the staff asked her husband what she needed.
Megha Banerjee said she used to work at a company with very few women. “When I would express my opinion, I was often interrupted, or my point was ignored,” she wrote. “It’s been six months that I’ve left that job, and I’m a much happier, more confident person.”
“I used to work for one of the 10 largest independent booksellers in the country,” Bianca DiRuocco wrote. “Often, a suggestion made by one of the female staff during meetings the owner attended would be shot down, only to reappear in a week or two as his own brilliant idea.
It happened so often a few of us started joking privately about noting our suggestions in the calendar to see exactly how many days later it would take for our ideas to go from ridiculously impossible to sheer genius.”
It happened so often a few of us started joking privately about noting our suggestions in the calendar to see exactly how many days later it would take for our ideas to go from ridiculously impossible to sheer genius.”
A ream of studies affirm such anecdotes. Researchers consistently find that women are interrupted more and that men dominate conversations and decision-making, in corporate offices, town meetings, school boards and the United States Senate.
Victoria L. Brescoll, associate professor of organizational behavior at the Yale School of Management, published a paper in 2012 showing that men with power talked more in the Senate, which was not the case for women.
Another study, “Can an Angry Woman Get Ahead?” concluded that men who became angry were rewarded, but that angry women were seen as incompetent and unworthy of power in the workplace.

Indeed, Jason Miller, a former adviser to President Trump’s campaign and a CNN commentator, described Senator Harris as “hysterical” and shouting during her questioning of Mr. Sessions. At times, Senator Harris cut Mr. Sessions off, but she spoke in an even tone.
That experience, too, resonated with many women responding to the Facebook callout.
“And if you complain, you are excluded,” said Paula Minnikin. “As the only woman on a particular corporate board, I asked the chair in private if we could consider finding another one or two women as we were seeking to replace three board members.
He said there was no doubt I was one of our strongest members but that there ARE no good women. I was the exception. He then went on to share that this is because I’m tall and strong, like a man, and don’t confuse things like a regular woman. I was flabbergasted.”

Tali Mendelberg, professor of politics at Princeton University, is co-author of “The Silent Sex: Gender, Deliberations and Institutions,” compiling studies examining what happens when more women join decision-making groups.
She and Christopher F. Karpowitz, associate professor of political science at Brigham Young University, found that, at school board meetings, men and women did not speak as long until women made up 80 percent of the school board. When men were in the minority, however, they did not speak up less.

“The fact that women are outnumbered in every room puts them in a position where they’re often coming up against gender-based stereotypes,” said Deborah Gillis, president and chief executive of Catalyst, which works for women’s advancement in business. “Women are too hard, too soft, but never just right. What that means is that women are seen as either competent or liked but not both.”
Some women are working to subvert these gender imbalances in their own organizations.
Ms. Walker, of New York Public Radio, said she pressed for more women at its senior level and on its board. “I think this not only empowers women throughout our organization, it also makes for better discussions,” she said. She is also pushing to increase the number of women who host podcasts.
Jacqueline Hinman, chairman and C.E.O. of CH2M Hill Companies, a Colorado-based engineering company that manages projects including light rail in Toronto and Olympic facilities in London, works in a field where women have typically been scarce. Now, however, women make up 30 to 40 percent of her board and are well represented in senior positions.
It took years of work to get to that point, Ms. Hinman said — and part of the push came from clients, increasingly women, who wanted to see diverse engineering teams. She said she made it clear to subordinates they will be judged partly on how many women and minorities they advance.
“Men who come to our companies from competitors are astounded by the number of women everywhere,’’ she said, adding, “They love it.”
Jun. 16, 2017 "Female breadwinners pay a cost for career success: marital stress": Today I found this article by Darah Hansen in the Globe and Mail. I like this article, but it's the opinions on the article that is fun to read:
The Globe’s report on research from business schools.
Alyson Byrne has long been curious about the so-called “Oscar Curse,” which says winners of the Academy Award for best actress are doomed to be unlucky in love.
In recent years, a group of researchers actually calculated that women who take home the golden statuette are 1.68 times more likely to file for divorce than their nominated counterparts.
Sandra Bullock became the latest casualty in 2010 when she famously split with her husband, Jesse James, just weeks after she was rewarded for her starring role in The Blind Side.
Dr. Byrne, assistant professor in organizational behavior and human resource management at Memorial University’s faculty of business administration in St. John’s, was a PhD student at the time of Bullock’s win, with an interest in what she calls “the counterintuitive side” of having status in the workplace.
“Because we always look at it as something so positive,” she says.
Her academic pursuit became all the more relevant amid the media gossip that swirled around Ms. Bullock’s marital collapse, and she began to examine whether the “curse” extends to high-status women with careers outside Hollywood.
Seven years later, Dr. Byrne and co-author Julian Barling, professor of organizational behavior at the Smith School of Business at Queen’s University in Kingston, have come up with a bold new take on the topic.
Their recent study, published in Organization Science, seeks to move the dial beyond studies that view the issue primarily through a male lens – essentially saying that the men can’t handle a more powerful wife.
The new study serves to fill an omission in the research to date: Women are asked directly about how they feel about their lower-status husbands, and what it’s like to be the breadwinner in what is still considered to be a non-traditional household.
“You have to imagine that a lot of these women, particularly in senior executive or high-status roles, are very smart and very ambitious. We know from management studies that they’ve had to work that much harder and face that many more barriers.
So what happens to them when they take a step back and look at their marriages and think, you know, I’ve worked so hard to get to my job and I’m married to someone who maybe hasn’t been as fortunate or as successful or maybe hasn’t been ambitious? Society tells me, unfortunately, that is not the norm,” says Dr. Byrne.
So what happens to them when they take a step back and look at their marriages and think, you know, I’ve worked so hard to get to my job and I’m married to someone who maybe hasn’t been as fortunate or as successful or maybe hasn’t been ambitious? Society tells me, unfortunately, that is not the norm,” says Dr. Byrne.
“We really wanted to get their voices and see how they feel and what impact that might have on their marital dynamics.”
To find the answers, Dr. Byrne and Dr. Barling surveyed more than 200 high-achieving businesswomen in Canada in heterosexual marriages or common-law relationships. (Their research is expected to expand to include same-sex couples.)
Most of the women held at least a university degree, with 80 per cent earning more than $95,000 a year. By contrast, 31 per cent of male partners of those surveyed held a university degree, and 44 per cent earned less than $95,000.

Among the methods employed, participants were asked to respond to a series of revealing statements such as:
“My spouse’s job impedes my future career success;”
“I am embarrassed when my spouse accompanies me to work events;”
“My spouse’s work makes me look bad.”
“My spouse’s job impedes my future career success;”
“I am embarrassed when my spouse accompanies me to work events;”
“My spouse’s work makes me look bad.”
The conclusions are complex, though suggest some clear patterns. Namely, many high-status women reported that being married to husbands with lower status than themselves does, in fact, act as a form of personal loss to their own status. And that, in turn, predicts marital dissatisfaction and instability.
This process, dubbed “wives’ status leakage,” occurs through the emotional and psychological reactions that these status differences trigger, the researchers state in their paper.
In a surprising twist, the researchers found that a husband’s willingness to provide instrumental support to his more-powerful wife – that is, child care or domestic help – has the ability to negate the effects of status leakage. The same is not true for a man’s emotional support.
Instead, women tend to get the emotional boost they need from friends, peers or family, says Dr. Byrne.
Instead, women tend to get the emotional boost they need from friends, peers or family, says Dr. Byrne.
Equally unexpected was how long the results of the study held. In a follow-up subsample, the researchers found that women who had higher status than their husbands and were feeling status loss were still experiencing higher rates of marital instability three years later.
The sense of loss doesn’t have to be significant to influence the marriage, says Dr. Byrne.
“[These women] are not feeling disgusted by their husband’s lower status position or incredibly angry. They are just feeling loss or wishing that they [the men] were at a similar level to their own, but it creates these long-term impacts on their marriages,” she says.
It’s worth noting that Dr. Byrne and Dr. Barling maintain they aren’t trying to dissuade ambitious women from getting married. “We really don’t want this to be a horribly sad story,” says Dr. Byrne.
But, they believe, too often people don’t have the right conversations, wrongly assuming things will work out in the end.
The results of the study indicate more work is needed to keep relationships on track.
“We suggest that, if you are an ambitious woman in your field and you also want to have a happy marriage, you may have to have some uncomfortable conversations pretty early in your partnership,” says Dr. Byrne.
“It’s a lot better to do that than to wait 15 years and be ambitious in your career but dissatisfied in your marriage.”
“It’s a lot better to do that than to wait 15 years and be ambitious in your career but dissatisfied in your marriage.”
They are also hoping the study helps to elevate leadership development and training in universities and businesses.
“There is a lot of pressure on women right now to lean in. We’re asking them to climb the corporate ladder, and corporations are setting gender targets for more and more senior management roles, which is great. We’re not disputing any of that,” says Dr. Byrne.
“But do women know the whole picture of what they are getting themselves into?”

Brainwashed feminist women mostly study BS topics like social science or humanities, because they dont want to study real subjects like Engineering for example. They have to justify their existence and justify their feminist brainwashing with studies like this and realize, well, what do you know, its all about biology. We are just like the animal kingdom.

"... calculated that women who take home the golden statuette are 1.68 times more likely to file for divorce than their nominated counterparts."
notice who is filing for divorce?
In the US, 80% of divorces are filed by women.
what does this say about male breadwinners? are we too complacent? too happy? entrapped? more tolerant? stronger sense of duty or obligation? Maybe male bread earners pick better partners?
To do a study on only half the human race cannot possibly come to any meaningful conclusion without studying the other half of the human race.
Additionally, the conversation around the study should stop using stereo-typing as the basis of their study and instead just study the actual cause and effects.
such as "Women are asked directly about how they feel about their lower-status husbands, and what it’s like to be the breadwinner in what is still considered to be a non-traditional household."
Do we ever ask men that? could anyone stand up in that class and ask that?

and then the study is about "feeling" and not about actuality.
"“We really wanted to get their voices and see how they feel and what impact that might have on their marital dynamics.”"
wording such as "Among the methods employed, participants were asked to respond to a series of revealing statements such as: “My spouse’s job impedes my future career success;” “I am embarrassed when my spouse accompanies me to work events;” “My spouse’s work makes me look bad.”"
They couldn't just have a rate your partner's career on how it reflects on you from a 1 to 10? No they had to put phrasing in negative context.
Studies should avoid feelings, and verbal manipulation, and concentrate studying quantifiable results and remain unbiased.
And yes, biased, as they only asked Heterosexual people too.
this study had its objectives laid out before the study returned the results.

This is funny because the article and 'study' referenced are so ludicrous that I also had the urge to pick it apart, line by line.
Honestly, I thought that the marital issues presented would be more about difficulty on men's side accepting a higher-earning wife.
Instead: Apparently these women are so materialistic/superficial that they can't deal with being married to someone who earns less.
Solutions: 1. Make sure they marry someone who earns more than their already-high salary (consequence: many or most successful women will not be able to marry)
or 2. Put some thought and work into your relationship like every adult must for it to be successful. Duh.

I also loved:
'80 per cent earning more than $95,000... By contrast, 31 per cent of male partners of those surveyed held a university degree, and 44 per cent earned less than $95,000.'
So that means that.... only 24% of the couples surveyed actually had the woman earn over the 95K and the man under? OK, then.

Is this saying that high achieving women are perhaps as prone to preferring a trophy spouse as high achieving males are?
There may be different trophy criteria at play, but the basic drivers sound all too familiar.
Why the story is examined from a strictly female perspective seems to have more to do with catching eyeballs than adding to society's knowledge base.

Men and women are not the same. Most women can not do the high stress jobs that men can. Often women will realize they are happier making less money in a less stressful job and spend more time with the family.
This Marxist narrative of gender equality is dangerous. It is pushing women to be something they are not and the evidence you can see all the time when women can fall. Men too are pushed to be more feminine it can have disastrous consequences.

"To find the answers, Dr. Byrne and Dr. Barling surveyed more than 200 high-achieving businesswomen in Canada in heterosexual marriages or common-law relationships."
Well, SOME of the answers. Maybe. The other "answers" may have been those of the group NOT surveyed: their husbands. Typical oversight, unfortunately (See the G&M's "Unfounded" series, for example.)
And there's this: the writer says, "The conclusions are complex, though SUGGEST some clear patterns." Well, if they only "suggest" then perhaps the patterns aren't all that clear, after all. Which negates the following phrase: "in fact" which negates what comes next: "And that, in turn, predicts ..." It's not necessarily a "fact" and so cannot "predict" anything with any certainty. In short: nothing much is known for sure.
RE: Sandra Bullock. As I recall, the marital break-up had nothing to do with her success--or his lack of it. The simple fact was that (1) he was foolin' around and (2) she caught him out.

A REAL MAN's lens, "Men can handle a more powerful wife". And change the wording for a REAL WOMAN,
"My spouse’s job DOES NOT impede my future career success;”
“I am PROUD when my spouse accompanies me to work events;”
“My spouse’s work is COMPLIMENTARY TO OUR WORK LIFE BALANCE
. It's about choosing the right partner, having a strong and supportive relationship, and having realistic expectations.
I suggest the study add 1 more factor - personality type. I think that A-type personalities, either male or female, will
1) have issues with a more powerful spouse,
2) feel their careers are impeded by their relationship,
3) feel embarrassed by their spouse at events (unless it's all about looks),
and 4) will have a level of shame about what their spouse does.
My recommendations -
1) choose your partner well,
2) be prepared to support each other regardless career success;
and
3) focus on your life outside of work.
Remember, check your ego at the door - it's just a job.

"Video in civil claim shows RCMP officer dragging student, stepping on her head after wellness check":
A surveillance video that is part of a civil lawsuit filed in B.C. Supreme Court shows an RCMP officer in Kelowna dragging a female nursing student down a hallway and stepping on her head after a wellness check at her apartment.
The suit alleging physical and emotional abuse was filed by Mona Wang, a student at the University of British Columbia's Okanagan campus in Kelowna, against RCMP Cpl. Lacy Browning on March 23.
The officer disputes the claim, saying that only necessary force was used to subdue the student when she became violent. In Browning's statement of defence, filed June 15, she alleges Wang had a box cutter in her hand and denies that she assaulted the student.
My opinion: There are 2 sides to every story. I thought: "Was Mona Wang being violent?" I read the whole story and Wang had a history of suicide attempts. I get that Lacy Browning would handcuff her so Wang won't hurt herself and others, but why put your foot on her head? Now that's police brutality.
What stood out to me the most was that it was a female cop. You can say about how women are supposed to be the nicer of the genders, but you can't always make big general statements like that.

I edited out some spelling, punctuation, and grammar. It turns out I never wrote about it. It wasn't until I found this Nov. 2008 that I mentioned it in a post.
In 2018, I wrote about the interview in detail:
