The country of MEN rights

I have never been a trendy girl, looking for nice clothes, dancing ballets, reading women magasins. I more liked to wear flannels and jeans when I was a teenager.
Then, I've grown up. Now, more and more, I like to dress as a woman, I must even say I like gallantry (not flatteries)
And, as this change happens, it happens that I am more and more confronted to male chauvinism. Remarks as "Be careful, there are no blinds" when I am entering my boss'office, remarks as "just write this" (you fool, you are a woman, so no need to explain to you), remarks as "you are hot ... oh menopause is coming !" ... this is my daily bread!
So, because of all this, I am fed up sometimes and work hard to prove a woman CAN manage ! I even answered to a military, coming back from Afghanistan, "you stayed too long in Afghanistan, you should now go to denmark !" when he sayed "we want to stay between men". And the more I shout, the more people listened to me ! Amazing. I start understanding why successful women are bad tempered ...
Sad but true, France is still not the country of human rights, but of "les droits de l'HOMME" ...
