"Being ignored is a frustrating experience. But being ignored because of
your gender, race, culture, or sexuality is enough to make you livid.
Unfortunately, even in the 21st century, being stereotyped and written
off at a glance is still possible.
In a viral thread on the r/AskReddit community, redditor
Teacherspet5859438e (wow, that’s a long username!) asked the women on
the site to share the times that they were being ignored in favor of
their male partners, colleagues, or friends, despite them being the
clients."
Via Muse, who wrote "On top of the difficulties these women had, just
trying to report these exchanges often results in being gaslighted:
“that couldn’t possibly have happened”, “you must have misunderstood the
situation”, “I don’t know what you are going on about, women are equal
now.” They are “listened” to when the husband tells the story."
