Uh - isn't the girl using HER power to get what she wants? Meanwhile, of course, as Guyinism recognizes, its the young, hard-working regular guys that are on the outs.

So all the other women who did NOT sleep with the guys that were helping you talk to people were edged out. Thanks a lot. And now you're cavalierly writing about it as if it were nothing, or even expected. Well, in case this comes as a shock to you or to any young women who read your blog, most women do not behave this way, and it is morally wrong. It hurts you, the man, and other women (and men). Shame on you. Great, Penelope, so you slept your way up in your career. So all the other women who did NOT sleep with the guys that were helping you talk to people were edged out. Thanks a lot.

No, women do not use power in the workplace the same way men do. Usually. Men want what they want and zero in on that target. And that target could be anything, not necessarily sexual. Women? We want to analyze the hell out of everything. Some do it faster than others but I think it is a universal quality. You had me when he pinned you….THEN WHAT?!?!

I admire your transparency and your dialogue with your initial discomfort as well as with your intrigue with this man. The double standard still exists. What is acceptable for men in the workplace is a topic of discussion when the woman is the older, more powerful one. But that is changing. I look forward to see what happens next !
