Women have for centuries tried the softsell approach. It was not thie
soft sell that got us the vote nor did it get us even the terminology pay
equity. Of course the hope is that attitudes will change but it needs to
be kick started. Being the only woman in my department (for the last 23
years) I have taken on the role of watchbitch. At the beginning if I was
at a metting the staff was careful what they said after awhile and after
some 'attacks', many understood the issues or at least accepted them.
Educating the whole next generation maybe a positive approach to change!
