Ficlets

Excerpt from a diary of today's career woman

Women in the corporate world are seen as dispensable rather than as long term investments. Men assume they will leave once kids are in the picture and that their goals include becoming trophy wives.

Men don’t acknowledge that sometimes we are the bread winners, the ones who support the household, the ones who also like to drive sports cars, and are driven and ambitious.

That’s completely ignored, until women become one of them. By becoming sterile, an unemotional drone with dollar signs in their eyes, divorced, and alone.
