Of the many decent men that I have come across, many are prey to their own genetic lego. A man can be successful, respected, hardworking and everything that contributes to the general society, but his weakness would be his EGO.
The few that are not affected by this brick, are seriously rare.
No matter how 'good a friend' a male can be to a woman, he needs his EGO to be fanned constantly, which is unfortunate when his boss is female. When that doesn't happen, he tries to gain sympathy by using whatever material wealth he has in form of dinners/lunches. It's pathetic and really, if we drew similar lines, it's almost like he was trying to 'sleep his way to the top'.
When women do that, it's frowned upon.
When men do that, it's ok, only because he didn't drop his clothes, only his wallet.
Principles are the same though.
I think everyone can be successful in whatever they set out to do if their vision is clear and they do it on their own steam.
Male or female, we are all working class and respect should be the order of the day.
Just because we are females, doesn't give the male any right for special treatment, lest his ego gets bruised.
Men should just admire women for their determination, strengths, abilities and not by his ego yardstick, which tells him that such women do not deserve the recognition they have earned because women do not have the Y chromosome.
Men should realise that the Y chromosome doesn't really factor very much in the genetic heritage, except to hand down the EGO brick.
