It's not just political, that's a thing at every job right down to a cashier at a wendy's "encouraging" her manager to give her the shift she wants. Women have used that tactic since humanity came to exist to secure anything and everything.

It's backfired on them recently with the whole "me too" deal so now they're having to actually work a bit more because a growing portion of men are afraid to lose their jobs over anything, but there are still retarded men participating which gives women things they have not earned.
