Once again Chloe Cuthbert you are 100% correct. They gaslight us because it works. Just like email and telephone scammers. If there was no return on the effort, the calls and emails would stop.
Back to the business world: The bulls***…errr…I mean gaslighting these particular people( mainly men) feed us pays off for them. Like you said: we stop or shut up.
So. One goal ( of many) to focus on. Breaking the pattern. I know. I know. Easier said than done. But then again, look about at this accomplished, smart, capable pack of women around us. Up for the task, I believe.
