When I was in law school, it was routine for women who were interviewing for jobs to be asked questions about what contraception they are using and about their plans for children.
I worked in an office in which the temperature of the office was controlled by the one man (at the top of the chain of command) and appeared to be based on trying to make nipples be erect and visible, if one were wearing sheer, light-colored clothing. The break room had several boxes of sex toys and porn videos stores in it for a few weeks. This was the only evidence that I ever saw being stored in our office.
Being appreciated and valued because we are smart and competent can be a struggle for women in *any* industry and in every profession in which "smart and competent" are valued.
