Examples of gender discrimination by coworkers?

[Anonymous]

If a coworker says that I abandon my child because they know my child lives somewhere else. Can that be gender discrimination? Cause if I was a man they wouldn’t say it.

Well maybe not, men can get accused of that too if he is not paying child support.

[Asker]

So my example is gender discrimination?

[Opinion Owner]

No..

[AI Opinion]

Yes, this can be considered gender discrimination. If the comment about abandoning your child stems from stereotypes about gender roles, particularly if such a statement would not be made towards a man in a similar situation, it reflects discriminatory attitudes. It's important to address such issues with your HR department or a supervisor to ensure a respectful and equitable work environment for everyone.

No? Men who leave their kids get called deadbeats.

[Asker]

So what’s a good example

[Opinion Owner]

Unequal training opportunities, Unequal benefits, Pregnancy discrimination, Retaliation against people who speak up against gender discrimination, etc.

[Asker]

Unwanted comments are also part of gender discrimination. Especially when the same wouldn’t be said to a man cause women are the primary custodial parents

[Opinion Owner]

But men do get shit for not being active in their kids lives.

[Blueeyes81]

That's not how it works.

[Asker]
