One is a business woman, the other a chemistry major.

I have assigned essays about a variety of political topics about women and almost all the men support women's rights and equality.
But how do they threat women in practice ? My girlfriend works with a couple of Iranians in her lab and she says they just won't listen to the advice of women. The only way you can get them to pay attention to what you say is to suggest that a male professor has suggested it.
