Myths aren’t holding women back. Patriarchy is
I agree with the person above that calling it a myth is not very accurate. They aren't myths, they are lies and prejudice that some groups refuse to stop perpetuating. I think the thing holding women back in the workplace are the people who want to keep us held back.
That we are promoted bc we are a woman and to meet a quota. Not that we are qualified.
YES, I have actually heard men talking about someone who was only promoted so that there would be a woman in the position, and I found it so offensive that it was hard to even find words to address them - but you better believe I found them! Standing up to these lies is so important because that's the only way that we can strip them of their power, little by little.
I can kind of see how the negotiation one comes into play. Just speaking from my experience when I was promoted to higher positions, a lot of those around made it seem like I should be grateful to even be here in the first place let alone want more from it. Wish I could go back and negotiate even more than I did, but at least I know now that I deserve to.
THIS. I cannot say this enough. I honestly thought I wasn't even allowed to negotiate. And I would hear people (men) say they negotiated but never heard women saying they did so I just thought like you said that we should be grateful and take what they were offering.
Myths?

Everyone is emotional. It’s just that emotions which men tend to express, such as anger or lust, are considered logic because we live in a patriarchy
