Don't forget that women still earn only 75% as much as men of the same position and level of employment, on average. That is a very bitter pill to swallow, and is one of life's confusing mysteries.
[/QUOTE]Not true... when all factors are considered (Hours worked per week, experience, job function) women make within a few percent of men (and different reports have it at + or -, but well within the noise in any event)

Sorry about your experience Belle, such instances justify a rant or two. I work in a company where your boss would get fired if it was established he acted in a sexist way. I suggest you go up the chain and log a complaint if you felt you were unfairly treated.

The gay guys I know get along just fine with women.
