In some cases, we found surprising results. At least half of SEOs in each group registered the most common microaggression: being interrupted or spoken over. In all, 91.1% of straight, white, cisgender women and 90.7% of LGBTQ+ women report this happening to them, while a surprising 82.5% of straight, white, cisgender men share the experience. Men in the BIPOC group reported barely half as many incidences of this microaggression in their experience. All three categories of women were most likely to report a pay gap and having their ideas stolen.
Reports from straight, white, cisgender women (65.8%), LGBTQ+ women (60.5%), and BIPOC uganda business email list women (59.3%) were remarkably consistent, falling within just slightly more than six percentage points of one another. Meanwhile, men in the BIPOC group were most likely to say they’d been passed over for a promotion (41.7%), followed closely by LGBTQ+ men (40%), and women (37.2%). Bad-faith banter Conversations on the job were fertile ground for verbal microaggressions of different types. What some might consider harmless banter may not be harmless at all.
that SEOs reported as disrespectful and hurtful. We defined four different categories and found that the most common complaint occurred among straight, white, and cisgender women, 68.4% of whom reported “being talked down to or treated as less capable than similarly qualified employees.” The other two most common complaints involved hearing “offensive jokes about race or ethnicity.” A total of 58.3% of BIPOC men reported hearing such jokes, but interestingly, even more LGBTQ+ men (60%) said they’d been exposed to this kind of inappropriate humor.
