Thirding. The glass ceiling is less than 1960, but it's definitely still there.
Companies are still being sued for outright discrimination in hiring. Women still get questioned on if they're going to quit when they start a family -and men do not-. (The question is not the problem, the gender bias is.) Family leave is only offered to women, and NOT men without a fight.
There are men -and- women who didn't want to vote for Hilary not because they didn't think she'd do a good job but because she's female. There were interviews all over the place about it.
