Your original comment sounded a lot like 1950/60s thinking of an all female secretarial pool like in Mad Men where a secretary was the glass ceiling for women. It also sounded like a line spoken by one of the men in Mad Men. It's also the specific ideal for a particular political movement known for wearing their red hats that think this is what would make the country great again.

It does definitely read a bit strange, but you seem genuine which makes up for that.

Hey dude. Good on you for trying. Sexism is often extremely deeply rooted. So much so that sexist people don’t even recognize without someone else pointing it out. It takes YEARs of self reflection and even then, you’re still going to catch that worse part of oneself breaking through.

Some people vastly over compensate and that’s really no fun either.
