“I’ve worked with women in the military, a male-dominated environment with its own ecosystem. Sure, there’s plenty of that, where a woman is expected to take a joke or develop a thicker skin or put up with some BS about her tampons. I’ve witnessed it and I can guarantee you I shut it down whenever I came across it. Could I have done better? Probably. But anyone who disrespects a woman in my presence, whether she’s doing her job or not, won’t get a second chance to make that mistake.”
