So, I've been thinking about the "masculine energy" thing. Saw some folks on LinkedIn agreeing with Zuck's sentiment, saying the news didn't accurately portray what he actually said...that it's not about gender, it's a pendulum that swung too far.
I call BS on that.
Those of us who present as women get penalized for being too masculine. When I've been assertive, I was called aggressive. When I was direct, I was called blunt. And people used those labels to justify ignoring or sidelining me.
