When Your Workplace Feels Like a War Zone

Have you ever watched your brilliant idea get credited to the guy who repeated it five minutes later? Ever been interrupted so many times in a meeting that you just stopped trying to finish your sentences? Ever wondered if you're being paranoid about workplace sexism, or if it's actually happening? In 2009, a group of women in New York started meeting in secret to answer exactly these questions. They called themselves the Feminist Fight Club-not to wage war on men, but to combat the subtle, maddening sexism that pervades even the most progressive workplaces. What began as wine-fueled venting sessions evolved into something powerful: a sisterhood armed with strategies, data, and the shared recognition that they weren't crazy-the system was. This wasn't your mother's feminism of burning bras and breaking glass ceilings. This was about surviving the thousand tiny cuts that bleed women's confidence and stall their careers, one "sweetie" and stolen idea at a time.
