Maybe get on a few nerves here, but this is my opinion.
I don't mind women in the workplace, but there are certain things that bother me.
One situation I can think of happen recently, well it happens quite often, but I will speak of a certain instance. One day there was a box that needed to be put up. Not really a heavy box maybe around 5 to 10lbs. Will a young lady asked me to pick it up because in her old words "I am too much of a girly girl.". I am thinking to myself then why are you even working here and why should I be making the same amount as her when I have to exert more energy on the job. Like I said this wouldn't bother me too much but it is a constant thing. You know if she asked once in a long while to pick up something that is actually heavy.
Don't get me wrong there are plenty of women that pull their weight around but ones like the one who should be nameless above really @#$% me off.
Another thing not so bad though but the door thing. You know how it is polite to hold open a door for a lady. This don't bother me but don't take advantage of it ladies. When I am about to enter a convince store, hold the door open for my wife and child and here comes a line who also wants the door open, well true story. I actually held the door open for so long that my wife was already waiting for me at the checkout.
Enough rant, but it does get on my nerves and figured I would vent it here.
