Do you treat female employees different?

I’m not talking about admins but engineers, lawyers, accountants, etc. do you chastise them as idiots or cater to their mistakes when they make them? Do you present things to them for lessons learned manners in a harsh way or coddled way?
I’m curious. We have a young lady who is a sharp girl, but very inexperienced. OT 5 but Industry 10. I feel guys are letting her get away with murder basically and being very kind vs if this was a dude who’d they’d be coming to me to shite can.
How do you treat these?

Yes. They’re more likely to sue and/or cause problems/drama

Fire her and tell her it's because she's a woman

That’s the issue. As an executive I’m not supposed to be managing junior level engineers. I feel with females, I have to step in and do it since there is either a fear or courtship with a half decent looking female professional.

Ive never seen anyone talk to a woman, the way people have spoke to Men in my field.

I’m an engineering manager you can’t show bias. I treat them all the same

Sore subject.
I had to hire females I knew could not do the job. And only one ever could, and she only lasted a few months.
If they applied, our Woke HR pretty much forced us to hire them, or any "minority."
Most would like and say they could handle the physical requirements, and all the years I worked there, only one could actually do it. The rest ended up doing office shite all the time, which was not fair to the guys who worked there.

Of course. There is "guy" talk and then there is "PC talk".

Treat her like the professional she is.
There is no reason to coddle. You and your employees need to grow a pair.
And I say this as having just got off the phone with my boss that told me to stop being so hard on one of the male employees

I try to avoid them at all costs so I don't end up in HR on a false accusation.
Most guys I work with feel the same way.
Women only have themselves to blame.
#METOO and Woke Insanity has consequences.

I work with a guy that had the first USAF female F-15 candidate as a student, she was very much a Rosa Parks type set up, she was pretty bad, couldn't 3D conceptualize, put multiple jets in the mix and she lost it, easily flustered, he kept flunking her(long after a male student would have washed out,) they kept telling him to give her more instruction, finally there was a hearing to determine her fate, the AF got Bud Day, a pretty famous man in his own right, to represent her, they ended up letting her go to transports, after the hearing Bud asked my friend what would it have taken to get her through tjhe course, my friend told him that there wasn't enough JP-4 in the AF to make her into an F-15 pilot, he ran into her later in her career and she thanked him for being such a hard arse and that going to the F-15 was not her idea

Women will cry if you treat them like a man. That’s why I’m glad we don’t hire them as engineers.

Our work was 80% administrative anyway, with 20% handling ship lines, plowing snow, ect.
The ship lines were too much for women and they kept being forced on us by recruitment and HR. In fact, if no female or ethnic minority applied they would trash the recruitment and start from scratch.
So the guys had to go out in 10 degree weather, on a catwalk 50' above the water helping ships dock, while the women got out of it because after hire, decided it was too difficult. And there was nothing you could to about it.
Then the women wonder why they were treated like "second class citizens." Because they were.

It was the beginning of the end for me.
I had a guy who was a former school teacher who I had to hire a female over because HR said he didnt have enough "customer service experience." A fricking school teacher..
The lady lasted 7 months and moved on, couldnt handle the work. HR says once theyre hired, nothing we can do.

This is my experience normally. I used to work with a woman who was a minority in the industry we were in and she felt like she had to try too hard instead of just doing her job. This led to her being a very poor performer who did not have the respect of anyone in the office. She then somehow kept getting promoted over qualified people. She then became an expert in office cliche which made it even worse.
I personally don't care of anyone's gender or race. All I care about is if you can do your job and not put other work on others unnecessarily.
