    I don't think it is an issue of conspiracy. It is plain old fashioned
    sexism. It happens - bad business or not because it is cultural and
    globally I may add. Much like racism, there are just certain things
    woven in the fabric of our world we cannot avoid. We can work to
    change them - but acknowledging that they exist is half the battle.
