Anon @ 9 March 2019 12:02 GMT - Unfortunately, it seems that 'Feminism' has got hold of several generations of women and not just young women, which does influence their behaviour both at work and socially.

By way of example - a couple of years ago, I attended a networking seminar. A perfectly respectable and educated older lady, completely unprompted, came out with the following remark:

"Oh, it can be quite intimidating for a woman going into a hardware shop and being served by a man."

Of course, everyone was shocked but probably out of politeness, nobody tackled her on why she had made such an unnecessary and strange comment. One can only think of what the French call, "Received ideas". And we know what the influence was on that occasion.
