  • I’m a social worker. I had a tough time in grad school at the peak of the Me Too movement and Trump’s first term. My cohort was maybe 5% men. I sometimes felt like the target of the anger and resentment my classmates felt towards men in general. I worked hard to listen and not be defensive, but it was difficult.

    I’ve experienced a little bit of that since graduating, but it was specific to a toxic workplace. These days I’m just so grateful to be surrounded by brilliant women. I learn so much and I never feel out of place.
