The guy viewed you as sexual competition for the women, and the other women besides the nice one were not sexually attracted to you so they wanted you to literally die.

Nice analysis. What does it have to do with my profession and work though this is retarded
>>34344729
Is this a UK or US law firm?

Never EVER pick a female lawyer

Without the government enforcing gender quotas women would be long death because they would actually have to compete agaist men.

Why, I almost feel that's one of the few subjects they're equal to men.
Yep this is the future unless something changes.
Dad works as a cop here in AUS and he keeps seeing women with not enough skill or experience getting promotions they don't deserve.

I work in retail and I see this all the time
>>34345494
Retail stores where I live have signs that say they're only hiring women. I kind of get it if it's a women's lingerie store or something, but when the store only sells men's suits, shirts, ties etc it's kind of weird.

Just walk in and say you're legally a woman and / or identify as a woman. Sue if they reject you.

I can't afford that. Suing people costs money here, there are no "you don't have to pay if you lose" lawyers here.
