I am not male, but I have some data.

I went to a party at my SO' s Project Managers house. She is not my boyfriend's boss, but she does have more authority. There were a few content developers there, but it was all the project managers.

I am 8 years younger than my SO 35, but most of the people there were way older than him, early to mid 40s.

The hostess was the only female PM, she is also Hispanic. Everyone at the party, including her husband made racist jokes at her, one after another.

I was freaking out, she laughed along with them. They all thought I was a silly baby, for worring about PC, or respecting her culture.

There are lots of smart women her age, who couldn't tough out those dicks, to make the life they deserve.

My SO was told very elaborately how fast I would leave him, if he acted like his good old boy coworkers.

I don't like to be in charge of work, or people. In school everyone was pretty excited, to have me in their group to take charge.

Also, most of my gen ed classes are close to 80% female.

Also the definition of irony.

A trophy wife there got soooooo pissed at me, for referring to my sister as a basic bitch.

The right to be basic is very important.
