ya, a man can step up and say stop. out of bounds. no

he will have the authority.

i can easily see putting a woman in that position and if she says anything, HER authority shot down, without support. even for those under her.

i dunno. i can easily see it. i do not know all the particulars, but who knows.

maybe....

it was a whole network or connection of the fuggin' good ole boy.

would i want a lot more authority from her... challenging it. say, i dare you, fire me. i am taking this on?

would have LOVED it.

but do not even think even with position and responsibility that she would be on a level playing field. that is what we address. it is not within the structure yet.
