So i’m the only male (34) in an office full of women, all of whom are older than me. I’ve worked here 3 months and noticed conversations stopping or changing when I enter the room, and lots of childish giggles. None of them really speak to me or include me in things which i’m fine with, I probably prefer it that way. But, curiosity got the better of me I suppose.

So I turns out they don’t like my beard, or my clothes, and they especially don’t think much of my receding hairline either. Unsettlingly though, on one recording i’ve made over the course of the week two of the women closest to my desk were discussing my wife’s appearance after finding her on facebook. They were complimentary about her at least but the phrase “punching above his weight” was mentioned. Oh and also half of them thought I was gay because I don’t wear a wedding ring.

So it turns out I work with a bunch of vapid, ignorant, moronic Karens. And I can’t confront them that i’ve recorded them because that would be a can of worms I don’t fancy opening.

TL;DR

Thought I would put my paranoia at ease, turns out i’m unattractive and potentially gay.
