When Your Seat at the Table Comes with an Invisible Asterisk
Picture walking into a high-stakes tech conference as the keynote speaker, yet watching people consistently edge you out of conversations to speak with your male colleague instead. Then, after your presentation, those same people suddenly find you worth approaching. At a dinner with other female tech leaders facing identical treatment, they made a pact: "make it awkward" by calling out this behavior rather than accepting it silently. This wasn't a workshop exercise-this was the daily reality for a Facebook executive who would eventually become CEO of Ancestry. The statistics tell a sobering story: women earn 10-20% less than men in identical jobs and are 25% less likely to receive requested raises despite asking just as frequently. These disparities begin in childhood, where girls are called "bossy" while boys are praised as "leaders." Even children's literature reinforces these stereotypes, with "girl" books focusing on princesses and friendship while "boy" books feature adventure and problem-solving. When one author wrote a children's book, her son advised against using a female character's name in the title because "it will be less appealing to boys." This conditioning creates a classic double bind where women must either seek power and face harsh judgment or serve quietly to earn praise.
