I hate to burst your bubble, but the glass ceiling is still there. It's not gone. Depending on industry, that dynamic has either gotten better, gotten marginally better, or still very much a part of women's work experience.

I don't know of any industry where greatly improved or completely eliminated though I invite you or anyone else to name one.

Youre still dodging. You said the words. Assumption of incompetence. Distrust. Contempt. Refusal to give respect.

You made the observation. Men do this to women.

Where does that come from? Why did enough men in that department (which is representative of any department, anywhere, still today) hold those emotions : distrust, contempt, assumption of incompetence with no legitimate reason to?

What were the feelings held by the men that automatically led to that behavioral expression?

And yes. Hate is useful. Its usefulness has nothing to do with the patriarchy. That would be an example of how hate has run amok, which is also a possibility for it.

I will say again, if there were no evolutionary advantage to hate, given it's capacity to cause problems, even death, then it would have been selected against by now.

And I can defend that.

You can believe whatever you want about it. How's that ax coming?
