This was not the point of #MeToo.
, and seemingly countless others were just the more visible victims of sexual assault and harassment by men at work. Every day, in offices all over the world, men are treating women like garbage, and apparently, it’s so hard not to be horrible that men at work are deciding to just cancel women coworkers altogether.from The University of Houston provided some pretty disturbing and depressing information about how men are comporting themselves at work in the post-MeToo world.
The 2019 results show that 27 percent of men now totally avoid one-on-one meetings with female coworkers. Another 21 percent say they’d think twice about hiring a woman for roles that would mean a lot of one-on-one time. A staggering 19 percent would hesitate to hire an “attractive” woman. How lovely.
Even more depressing is the fact that those numbers are up from last year, when only 15 percent of men surveyed said they would treat cute female coworkers differently and possibly not employ them. Perhaps less depressing is the fact that both male and female survey respondents seem to agree on what constitutes harassment save for three items on a list of 19 that survey respondents were asked to weigh in on. On the ones where they differed, men were more likely than women to term the behavior harassing. Leanne Atwater, a management professor at the University of Houston, says this proves a few things.
