Thank you for posting this. I was trying to figure out why every woman I know is posting a black & white selfie, but I didn’t feel like googling. Lame AF.

Why won’t you post a black and white selfie?

You could give 5 women a job making 200k each watching movies all day and by the end of the second week they'd be talking about how unappreciated they are and how people don't respect the stresses that come with watching movies all day.

It's genuinely amazing. The only ingredient is putting women around other women for the requisite amount of time. All other variables are irrelevant.

Because I’m going to give birth any day now and don’t really feel up to selfies.

I find actual professional women can act normally about their jobs. Doctors, lawyers, accountants. It’s the nurses and teachers who act like 45 hour weeks are insane.

What if men started shoehorning “men” into conversation and text as often as women

Nobody cares about the actual challenge, it just gives women another opportunity to find their best black and white picture and post it

As someone married to a female professional I'm not so sure...

But admittedly, being a female lawyer or the like looks difficult from the outside. Most women I know are not naturally inclined to flip a switch and leave stress/hostility behind or to engage in aggression/negotiations/etc. without getting personally offended.

Which is why so many of them end up with a hard shell, I'm guessing.

100%, Women look for things to complain about. To be honest, our culture and the men of America kind of let that happen. When you constantly shower women with compliments and you are passive with them, women lose 100% of their respect for you.

I guess age probably builds up that shell. The female lawyers my age act pretty normally.

I guess me providing the vast majority of our income for several years while my wife made a career change in her early/mid 30s doesn't count for anything?

if you watch or listen to media from the 60s and earlier, the tone was more about the woman finding a man to marry her

Somewhere along the line, that was completely flipped on its head

This is 100% correct. And everyone looks great in B&W photos.

She managed to get you to marry her that was all her own doing.

Never underestimate the ability of a woman to pat herself on the back for anything and everything. This may be the most narcissistic thing I've seen in a while.

i think this is a big issue that i've seen

it's the Men Are Like Waffles — Women Are Like Spaghetti theory of compartmentalization

i am curious how much of this is nature or nurture, b/c with my personality type (INTJ) efficiency is key and organization is key to efficiency. it's an ongoing war with the people who just have everything flowing at once, which, in my personal experience, seems to be a disproportionately (but certainly not exclusively in the legal field) female trait

if i hear "i'm multi-tasking" one more time by one of these people (male or female) i'm going to lose it
