too many sharp edges, being too mean, etc. That's all true
but not without purpose.
[4] You're also constantly looking to other women for someone
to model yourself after. Because the set of available
candidates is so limited, it's really hard to find someone
you feel comfortable with having as a guidepost. So, you
basically either choose a man to model after or cobble
something together from fragments of women. A frankinmodel
is usually always bad because the traits that make a
product or professional manager successful are different
from those that make a technical founder successful.
[5] The worst part for me personally was a stage where
I was behind. I didn't touch a computer until I was
in college. My male counterparts, however, had been
programming actively for years before I even navigated
the filesystem. But there is something far more
treacherous than losing from being behind: it's not being
considered a competitor. When you are strapped
with low expectations, it's easy for you to start believing
those are true. People are also sometimes quick to
validate your low expectations and even performance.
In college, I had this racquetball class. The first thing
the coach did was divide the group into boys and girls. The
boys played against other boys and girls played against
other girls. After a few weeks of this arrangement, I
was destroying the other girls. eventually, the coach allowed
me to play against the guys and even the worst guy
promptly destroyed me. They hit the ball way harder than
the girls and the play was very physical and intimidating.
on the final day of class in the final match, I lost by only
a couple points. By that time, I had finally started to hone
a new strategy: I couldn't compete on speed or power, so I
competed on finesse. That meant skating the ball along a
wall and giving the guys less of an opportunity to hit the
ball with any amount of power. I felt pretty good about
getting to that point, but upset that I didn't have an entire
term of play at the guy's level. Had I started earlier and
had my competition been tougher, I bet I would have won
a few.
