Oh, go on then, I'll jump in (I usually just lurk when I'm here these days)

As a result of a brilliant, counter-cultural suggestion by my mum when I was choosing my degree subject many decades ago, I ended up with a career in a male-dominated environment. I was also an occasional recreational pilot. In those environments, I did encounter sexism, sometimes deliberate as a competitive ploy though more usually just casual; but misogyny? Never.

Maybe I've been lucky.
