OFFICE DOUBLE STANDARDS
A businessman is aggressive, a businesswoman is pushy.
He's careful about details, she's picky.
He follows through, she doesn't know when to quit.
He's firm, she's stubborn.
He makes judgements, she reveals her prejudices.
He's a man of the world, she's "been around."
He exercises authority, she's bossy.
He's discreet, she's secretive.
He says what he thinks, she's opinionated.
