I am currently an unemployed white collar professional. I've noticed a few things while interviewing for jobs.

  1. If the industry is deemed to be "feminine," and one of the interviewers is married female, they'll pass you over right after the interview because you're a man.
  2. Regardless of what industry it is, if the hiring manager is a married female, they'll pass you over because you're a man.

I've done so well in some interviews but I've noticed it doesn't matter how prepared I am, once I get to that stage where I interview with a married woman, the chance of me getting rejected goes up regardless of how well I perform. And the rejection comes quick too, usually like within 48 hours post-interview.

I know interview performances are proven to be not an accurate indicator of someone's eventual performance at a job but I don't think what I've pointed out can be chalked up to just "coincidence."

Curious if anyone has had this experience in the past 5-10 years, and especially now? I've noticed radical feminism is on the rise and has been on the rise for several years in countries such as Mexico, Chile, and many European nations. Is it here in the US but no one is talking about it? I mean, I'm basically pointing out the same discrimination that women accused men of doing to them like from the beginning of time up until like 1990. Perfect example of reverse sexist discrimination if you ask me.
