Women in Male Fields and Chill Guy are two trends sweeping social media — and dividing people across gender lines, some say.
The article from CBC News discusses a TikTok trend where women in male-dominated fields share their experiences with a "chill guy" who often undermines their expertise. This trend, which uses the song "Chill Bill" by Rob $tone, highlights how these men initially appear supportive but later dismiss or belittle the women's professional knowledge. Examples include a woman in tech whose male colleague ignored her advice, leading to project delays, and another in construction where her expertise was overlooked until a male colleague repeated her suggestions. The trend has resonated widely, with many women sharing similar stories, pointing to a broader issue of gender bias in professional settings. The article also touches on the psychological impact of such microaggressions and the importance of recognizing and addressing these behaviors to foster more inclusive work environments.
