This is really horrible and should get more attention.

For those who don't want to go through the whole thread, here is just a few I have picked out.

  "Credit going to the men surrounding a project
  instead of the woman spearheading it."

  "Conversely, giving a woman all the credit when
  someone needs to take the fall for a mistake."

  "when requesting a promotion & using a male counterpart
  as an example, was told "oh don't worry about him""

  "presentations and research I compiled literally
  stolen and presented c level without notifying me"

  "being told to take notes in a meeting that was about 
  my team’s project, for which I was the lead developer."

  "being made to do marketing when i was hired as the 
  senior software dev & project manager"

  "no matter what, I am always taken as someone who has 
  just signed up on Codecademy. Even at conferences 
  where I am a speaker."

  "being asked at meet ups if I am lost, if I'm /really/ 
  there for the meet up. Even when I'm the speaker for the 
  night."
