No, she reaped the benefits of HER hard work and smart decisions. Women have had the choice to study STEM and business for many, many decades, and have had the choice to spend the 70-80 hours a week at the office that many FT500 CEOs did in climbing the ranks.

And, congratulations in doing your part to try to ensure a female CEO doesn’t succeeed just because she’s not a feminist. Apparently, that’s what feminism is all about, forcing women into the camp.

This article has anger “chip” all over it and the same old feminist complaining that does nothing to advance women.

It makes the same mistakes that feminists always do that keep women out of the FT500 CEO chair. By contrast, Marissa didn’t waste time wrangling her hands over a made-up “wage gap” figure. Instead, she did what countless FT500 CEOs before her did: she got a degree in STEM and/or business, made smart decisions about where to go to work, worked long hours, making her organization successful.

That is the exact same thing that both women and men FT500 CEOs have always done. Not a single person, male or female, has ever majored in Women’s Studies, blogged about the wage gap and gone on to become a FT500 CEO.

Well, if Marissia is a CEO and getting great pay to make statements necessary
for advancment in the corporate world, fine. If this dear child could go back
to my mother’s days and mine; she would be lucky to get any further than teacher
or secretary–if that.

She is gorgeous. Am I allowed to say that without being labeled a chauvinistic pig???

I guess my grandmother and my mom and I didn’t work hard enough back in the days to explain what feminism is and why we did all we could to teach our daughters and sons about its virtures. This young woman reaped the benefits of our hard work, and I have never heard of her and hope I never will again. What she said sickens me (she learned all that at her corner church most likely). I pay Yahoo $20 a year for a small service, but I will be cancelling it in December. Then I will probably stop using my Yahoo email addresses and stick with another non-Yahoo one.
