Perks of Womanhood

I often complain about being one of few (or the only!) women in the Boardroom. Hence, I present to you (in stereo, where available) the Perks of Being the Only Woman:

There's no line for the restroom at corporate meetings (there is for the men).

There's always plenty of Diet Coke (the guys all seem to prefer iced tea).

Everyone always holds the door open for you (politeness is universal).

I can leave a tube of concealor or hairbrush in the restroom and no one touches it.

I can wear a skirt and become the biggest distraction in the room.

I can fully assess someone by just looking at their shoes.

They think I'm the coolest woman ever, since I religiously follow college football.
…And know the pro football teams' affiliations with the various US cities.

Last, but not least, no one ever questions if you step out of a meeting…you may be tending to a mysterious gynecological issue!
