Do you think that career women face sexism in their fields? Explain why (not)

I'm a scientist and I face lots of sexism. I worked taking data on a whale watch boat and everyone assumed I was a galley girl and would try to order food with me and I'm just standing there in from of them with my clipboard and camera and binoculars. 

LOL yes. Both sexes experience difficulties in the workplace, but it's more common for women to experience sexist policies or sexist comments from organizations, managers, and coworkers--from both men and women. WOC tend to experience it worse than white women. I was in a work conference all week and this was a topic. I don't have my notes in front of me right now but the statistics were pretty eye opening. Fun fact of the day: there are more CEOs names John than there are female CEOs. 

In mine they do. It's a primarily female field, but men tend to be promoted ahead of us. I remember when I was in college there was only one guy in my program. No one ever wanted to work with him, because he was lazy and semiincompetent. When our first internships were assigned, he got the best placement in the mayors office. 😐

I'm an assistant principal. One day when the male principal was out of the office, I took a phone call from an angry parent. The parent on the phone refused to explain the situation to me because females can't deal with disciplinary issues the way that males can. I'd like to say this was a one time thing, but stuff like this happens all the time.

I'm in nonprofit, my male co worker and I would play a game where my idea would get rejected as being silly, so he would say the same thing (verbatim) and would be praised. If this game wasn't so fun I would have been a lot more pissed off. 

Most definitely. You often hear about it in the military and police force

I would most definitely say so. I'm a dental assistant and my boss is pretty sexist. He often says things like "women often don't understand this concept", "women often do this"... And he will not hire anyone besides women in his office. Anyways, I'm sure there are hundreds of other ways women are discriminated against in their job and I would think it would also depend on the type of job sometimes. 

Yes it exist ... I work in construction. I am a safety coordinator and an assistant to 15 project manager all of them men. I feel I do my job well and most of the time feel respected by the people I work with. One of the rules I find upsetting is that after I walk a job site if something is not safe or if an employee of my company is not being safe I have to write it up and  go to the PM and let them have the discussion with the General Contractor or the employee "if" they feel it's needed if the PM does not  see it fit or feel it may ruffle too many feathers then no discussion is had.  Some might not think this is bad as one of the uppers put it "You're not seen as the bad person or viewed as a Bitch" the way I see it is ... what is the point in having the job if someone else is dealing/not dealing with the situation at hand. I feel they gave me the position provided ME with the proper training so why have someone else present/not present my finding. 

My research team consists of 7 males and me. When we were at a conference they would refer to me as their assistant when in actuality I designed all of the hardware for the project and was one of the original team members at the beginning stages. 

It definitely happens but i dont think it happens always. I just started in an engineering department and i havent experienced sexism yet. Im working at a pretty good company and have great coworkers. No one has said anything negative to me. People treat me very well.
