At first they laughed at Mike Pence, now they see his caution and devotion to his wife as a kind of oppression of women.Across Wall Street, men are adopting controversial strategies for the #MeToo era and, in the process, making life even harder for women. Call it the Pence Effect, after U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, who has said he avoids dining alone with any woman other than his wife. In finance, the overarching impact can be, in essence, gender segregation.
It was built by boys to begin with.Now, more than a year into the #MeToo movement -- with its devastating revelations of harassment and abuse in Hollywood, Silicon Valley and beyond -- Wall Street risks becoming more of a boy’s club, rather than less of one.
Women are mad because it's harder for them to fuck their way to success... or litigate their way to success.“Women are grasping for ideas on how to deal with it, because it is affecting our careers,” said Karen Elinski, president of the Financial Women’s Association and a senior vice president at Wells Fargo & Co. “It’s a real loss.”
So it's damned if you do and damned if you don't.“If men avoid working or traveling with women alone, or stop mentoring women for fear of being accused of sexual harassment,” he said, “those men are going to back out of a sexual harassment complaint and right into a sex discrimination complaint.”

My heart bleeds for them. THEY ARE NOT ENTITLED TO MENTORING. Jfl mentoring a whore who wants to replace you and later ruin your company (see Marissa Meyer).Male paranoia following from #MeToo has led to women losing out on mentoring positions, a new report suggests. The result of restricting women’s access to men’s spaces means that they can’t one day replace men in those spaces. It means they’re shut out of progression, especially in industries where women role models are thin on the ground.

Wall Street foids: "Help me climb the ladder that you built so I can take my rightful place on top of it."In this charged environment, the question is how the response to #MeToo might actually end up hurting women’s progress. Given the male dominance in Wall Street’s top jobs, one of the most pressing consequences for women is the loss of male mentors who can help them climb the ladder.
Why would they? It's not worth the risk even if it were worth the effort.“Advancement typically requires that someone at a senior level knows your work, gives you opportunities, and is willing to champion you within the firm. It’s hard for a relationship like that to develop if the senior person is unwilling to spend one-on-one time with a more junior person.”
