If anything we will take you less seriously as a Barbie doll
If someone is a complete slob (male or female), I would probably take them less seriously (whatever that means)
No
Nope
Why should women be treated differently according to what they are wearing or how good looking they are, what kind of bullshit questions do you guys ask? Would you disregard a male colleague's professional opinion just because he is ugly as hell or dress badly? So why would you do it with female colleagues? Am I in a chat for horny teenagers or for professional grown-up adults?
I find when I wear a full power suit instead of floral dresses, I'm generally taken more seriously. However if I'm on a meeting with all men who need some convincing to see my point, high heels and sheath dresses all the way
Being blonde and tall it doesn't take much to be treated less seriously.
Citi 1 height begets respect, for either gender. Enjoy
What if they are just not pretty regardless whether they wear makeups and dress pretty or not
Well maybe Barc is the one place on the face of the earth where "professional grown-up adults" are rational, mature, and pleasant...but out here in the real world, they will absolutely take any excuse to judge the shit out of you and generally behave like animals
@Barc1 they shouldn't be- I asked because I wanted to know if they *were* - because a female colleague told me she'd once been offered a job but told "you will have to wear makeup and heels if you want to be taken seriously" which I thought was awful.
Thanks for clarifying Barc OP, I upvoted your last comment because I agree with you.
You are misled my friend, I work in a place where people do judge "the shit out of you", but on the basis of your brain and performance, not physical appearance.
