Sexism in the workplace hasn't disappeared,Anchorwoman A XXX Parody it's just become harder and harder to identify.
That's the thesis of Jessica Bennett's new book, Feminist Fight Club: An Office Survival Manual (For a Sexist Workplace). But instead of bowing down before "Lacthaters" ("the colleague who views the mom on your team as preoccupied and unserious") or just submitting to a Stenographucker (who "treats you like the office secretary, even when it's clear you're not"), Bennett offers clear Fight Club-strategies for women seeking to challenge sexism in the workplace.

Follow these 17 strategies, and join the feminist fight club.
To fight Stenographers, or men who treat all women like their office secretaries, Bennett suggests women politely, yet firmly, put the phuckers in their place.
The best way to attack Undermine-Hers, or men who reduce women to their sex/race/age, is to figure out what exactly is driving their aggression -- and fight.
"Lacthaters" are men who see moms on their team as "preoccupied and unserious." Women can get under the skin of Lacthaters by reminding them that moms know how to get it done, and done better.
Menstruhaters are men who assume that anything direct that comes out of a woman's mouth must be related to her "time of the month." Instead of lashing out at the Menstruhater (and proving his point), Bennett encourages women to keep their calm (and their anger) alive.
"Himitators" like to take credit for the work women do. To combat this very predictable form of sexism, Bennet suggests women join forces, build their strength in numbers and support one another.
It's 2016, far too late for male coworkers to keep accusing women of being on their periods. There's no room for Menstruhaters in the workplace. Bennett encourages women to call them out, and take them down.
Bennett encourages women not to be "Herfectionists," but to recognize their own achievements, however small they may first appear to be.
"Humble braggers" are women who always feel compelled to describe themselves as "lucky" or "grateful" to have been promoted. Bennett recommends women find a "female hype man" who'll do the boasting for them. There's so much to celebrate.
Sometimes women will - surprise! -- disagree with other women in the workplace. Women should remind themselves that no, it's not a catfight, it's just a disagreement, and that's actually genuinely, healthy.
Bennett suggests that women state the facts, not opinions, when speaking about themselves. Their achievements speak for themselves.
Women in the office sometimes become "office moms," willing to take all the notes and make all the lunch orders. Bennet encourages women to avoid as much as these as possible (assuming you don't *like* making the lunch orders, which can be a highly enjoyable task).
"Hoverers" are men who invade working women's physical spaces. While this often will lead to a call to Human Resources, Bennett suggests that women avoid "unnecessary" contact with the Hoverer, and keep all conversations short.
Women sometimes suffer from "Impostor Syndrome," or the feeling that they don't belong in positions of high power. Bennett suggests that women in the workplace psych themselves up. Fight negative thoughts with actually empowering ones.
According to Bennett, men get on average five more hours of leisure time a week than women. Bennet encourages women to take a moment for themselves, exactly like this dog does.
Women, like men, can ramble when they get nervous -- except women are more likely to be held accountable for it. Bennett encourages ladies to take deep breaths, which soothes the sympathetic nervous system.
"Ever faithful" women will stay loyal to a company, even if the company is cheating on them. Bennett wants women to invest in themselves and go where they feel happiest, not because they feel guilty and compelled to stay.
You did the work, so you deserve the praise. Learn a lesson from Honey Boo Boo. Celebrate yourself.
