Basically, women are screwed.
Researchers Amy Diehl, Leanne M. Dzubinski and Amber L. Stephenson surveyed over 900 women in leadership, working in higher education, faith-based nonprofits, law, and health care with open-ended questions. These questions worked to better understand the different types of bias they may have experienced over the course of their careers.
Women under 40 in the study saw their experience and credibility dismissed because of their age, while women between 40 and 60 continued to experience gendered ageism, too. One 66-year-old faith-based leader said, “At my age and with the mentality of our organization that they need men at the top, there is not a next professional step.”
Another aspect of the female work experience to add to the “Things Men Never Have To Deal With” list is their appearances being judged or scrutinized. “In our research we found no age was the right age to be a woman leader. There was always an age-based excuse to not take women seriously, to discount their opinions, or to not hire or promote them,” the study says.
