Over my years at different workplaces I've had to hold my tounge about my opinions and limit my jokes and humor because every word I say will be dissected and used against me at some point. I'm not an attractive man and that alone has caused some women to begin to find any excuse to nitpick.

I recently took a job at a book publisher dominated by females. They say the most graphic, sexist, racist and offensive things and we all know it's a joke but there is no way I could ever do the same without getting fired.

This was the case in the jobs I've had for at least 20 years. It makes it so I have to shut down my personality and it makes it harder to connect with people.
