Subtly Sexist Things “Woke” Men Still Do

Add the word “female” to your descriptor
Female CEO. Female investor. Female boss. Female partner. Female associate. I think that, again, men have some misguided idea that by adding “female”, they are empowering female kind. But it’s actually quite derogatory, because by adding that descriptor, it implies that it is out of the ordinary for a woman to hold that position (and though that may be true, it shouldn’t be, and we need to not encourage that idea).
