A friend has been given an opening by a leader in a large, conservative organization to help him understand women's experiences of sexism in the workplace. Is there a book or article by a woman talking about her experiences you would recommend?
This person is a conservative Christian leader who is, I think, open to changing his opinions about this subject. He's been hearing women who work there saying they have problems with the way they are treated, and he acknowledges that this seems to be a legitimate problem, but that he doesn't understand what they're talking about. He thinks women have a pretty good numerical representation and voice at this workplace. I think he himself sometimes treats women in sexist ways without realizing it.
My friend thinks, given this admission, that he might be open to reading a book or article that might help him understand the issues better. We think the best option would be something by one or more women relating their experiences of what it's like to be on the receiving end of sexism in the workplace. Something that might help him empathize with his employees. It would need to be something that doesn't have too much feminist jargon and that isn't hostile to Christianity, something that won't give him an easy way to discount the writer's experiences. Any recommendations?
