The first femsplaining I experienced was when I was little. It was momsplaining. "But why?" "Because I said so."

Wait, Aaron, what did you say?
  7:15pm

@queems AGREED
I learned so much!

Agreed. It's phenomenon that needs to be discussed.

Aaron in Minneapolis:

That we didn't need Jews around wfmu. I was referring to the ability for the morning show to raise money. Whoops. Wording is everything
  7:20pm
JakeGould:

Oh geez, I was late for the badly worded ethnic joke?

Anyway, power dynamics in the workplace are screwed up. Heck a ton more for women than men, but the creepiest part of the corporate world to me is how after some set amount of time—like 3 months, 6 months, 1 years—suddenly co-workers treat you differently. Unwritten rules.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:22pm
queems:

i'm going to have to listen to this again later in my headphones so i can really absorb it
  7:23pm
Aaron in Minneapolis:

Jake next time be on time for the ethic humor ackwardness
  7:24pm
Emily:

Yeah, geez—we were waiting for you to respond!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:24pm
melinda:

This is interesting. I have found that asking questions, sometimes even only in my head, really is a good way to shift focus away from myself when I'm feeling uncomfortable, it sort of turns down the volume of overwhelming emotion.
  7:26pm
JakeGould:

@Aaron: I accept your awkward Jew-foot in moth jokes as a side effect of bad timing.
  7:27pm
JakeGould:

Foot in mouth. Not foot in moth.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:27pm
queems:

i've found that in my experience that a lot of men have no interest in learning how to act better
  7:27pm
Emily:

@melinda that’s so interesting! I’m going to try to keep an eye on that—I wonder if I do it sometimes and don’t realize. Anyway, I want to try this tactic!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:28pm
melinda:

I like foot in moth.

A foot in a moth would be no small feat.

Any of the guys out here familiar with the "Art of Manliness" blog?
Avatar 7:28pm
kimzilla:

@queems, the ones doing it wrong are definitely resistant to learning how to change, It's like they want the ass grabbing golden days to stay forever.
  7:29pm
JakeGould:

In an awkward situation actually turning someone’s words back on them as a question is a good tactic.
  7:29pm
Emily:

@Richard I haven’t heard of that—what’s it about?

Emily I think being highly sensitive drove me to figure out strategies for being more comfortable with people and less susceptible to feeling hurt or insulted.

Richard S:

www.artofmanliness.com - It's basically about the lost art of being a well-rounded MAN, like your grandad. A counter to "bro" culture, the whole "Get six-pack abs in four weeks, and have sex with any woman" thing.

The Jason Bourne Situation Awareness feature on that site looks like it might be useful.

Fox:

There are a lot of similarities in what she is saying and the themes in the Malcolm Gladwell book "Blink"; it's all about your instinct, and learning how to train and trust your subconscious, which is absorbing and analyzing in an instant.

Way off topic:

I keep wanting the plural of dominatrix to be dominatrices.

An ad for Capri-Sun on sale at Associated supermarkets just came up on that “Art of Manliness” blog. Just saying!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:40pm
Richard S:

I beg to differ with you about its relevance, Brian and Jake (and they have to make $ somehow; it's a full-time job for them). But that's a matter for another discussion.
Avatar ♥ 7:40pm
βrian:

... and I think it also plays on the sense that a lot of people are so focused on "career paths" that they've never worked in the way that many people work.

So their real-world experience is, in some ways, vicarious — and blindingly identical to the experience of their colleagues.
Avatar 7:42pm
kimzilla:

@ Jeff, that totally makes sense in my brain. @Fox,So right, the instincts cannot be taught in HR classes. I don't know how you teach gut trusting though.
  7:44pm
Listener Robert:

What kind of career paths, Brian, and how do other people work?

It seems to me that people no longer experiment or move from one field of work to another — because of fear, sclerotic thinking? I don't know.

But it feels like the range of work/life experience is growing more and more narrow.
  7:52pm
JakeGould:

@βrian: Dude, there is no stability in the job market. So people are afraid of taking pay cuts and having a career switch fail.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:53pm

There was much more useful information in the Femsplaining show than in the Mansplaining one.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:54pm
melinda:

haha
  7:54pm
Listener Robert:

Seems to me that there are fewer opportunities to branch off a career path nowadays because so many jobs require, formally or informally, credentials that one can afford to get only with commitment.
  7:55pm
JakeGould:

There’s a lot of painful hand-writing on NPR shows abut why people don’t quit crappy jobs? The revelation is face-lam worthy. Sorry to sound cranky, but it’s like people never needed money for real from a job before.
Avatar ♥ 7:55pm
βrian:

No doubt. And a lot of the folks in charge of hiring want to see the same kind of uniformity that makes them feel comfortable.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:56pm

I just watched Something Wild (61, not Demme) which is rich for that kind of analysis.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:58pm
melinda:

Great show, ladies!
  7:58pm
Listener Robert:

The sort of qualification that employers consider relevant now (or at least their HR depts. do) has become ridiculously narrow and defiant of common sense. Like my friend who was passed up for a bookkeeping job at a spice importer in favor of someone else who'd been a bookkeeper for a spice importer.

thank you!!

In recent decades I've become less and less able to ignore just how dysfunctional the behavior depicted in so many beloved "love songs" is.

I guess, I'd just say that if you don't have a diversity of work experiences, your aptitude to respond to a diverse set of challenges wont' be sturdy.
