In certain industries, peer mentoring is the only path to success. In these industries, men mentor women with no problem (alright, the occasional sexual proposition, but can that truly be avoided?). Men mentor men with no problem. Women mentor men, with no problem. Yet, when a woman mentors another woman, she does everything in her overt and covert power to sabotage the success of this woman. This “queen bee syndrome” ensures temporary higher status. Take a step back though, Corporate Cunt. Women are still oppressed all over the world, and you are participating in the oppression within your own industry. Take a stand for what is right, and be ok with another woman’s success.
