Lately I have realized the tremendous difference in working style between women and men. It's as if they speak a different language. Women who are in highly authoritarian positions are the most dangerous predators.
It seems as if women become highly stressed, complain, gossip and exercise their power in order to prove that they are in control. I also think that often they want things done immediately and are often requesting a million things at once, at the end hardly getting it together. I feel terribly sorry for men who are subjected to such coworkers and managers. I have heard a few stories where men were walked over, probably because women felt that they had to prove themselves in a male dominated world. I believe women can be a lot more vindictive and vicious than men. I never thought I would say it, but in my opinion it's entirely due to the emotional nature of women.
Men are entirely different. For the most part they seem to be able to control their emotions. They don't complain incessantly, they don't gossip as much. When they work they prefer to take things one at a time and they don't sweat the small stuff as much. They approach work as work. They are highly competitive, but for the most part it's because the thrill of winning the competition is highly gratifying. They don't sneer, falsely compliment each other on the way they look, and the weight they lost, and gossip about celebrities or which guy has lose "morals." They seem to be able to approach most situations with reason and logic, rather than impulse.
I have come to believe that for the most part women should stay away from stressful careers. Very rarely women are able to handle a huge amount of responsibilities. This is also one of the reasons why women are much better than men in certain careers or lifestyles. Women who work low stress jobs or do part time work, invest themselves into their families and try not to prove themselves to men seem to be a lot happier individuals. For some reason being emotional has been given a very negative connotation, perhaps that's what is responsible for women's desire to steer clear of any form of lifestyle/career which requires that human characteristic. I think it's a mistake, we should try to utilize all of our faculties to our advantage rather than trying to become androgynous or aspiring to that boring idea of "sameness."
I don't know if this analysis is completely accurate, naturally it is based on my personal experience, observations and stories I've heard. What do you think of the above? Agree or disagree?
