Was there ever a time where you experienced any inequality because of your gender?

Hi, to be honest early in my career I did face negative comments about my gender when working in a field-based position. Basically, that I didn't know anything and was "just a girl".  I was fortunate to have a very supportive male supervisor who advocated for me.  By working hard and proving to the naysayers that I could do the work successfully I was able to combat their stereotypes and gain their respect.  It shouldn't be this way but unfortunately it does still exist. Now that I am more experienced, if I see behavior like that, I call it out. I want to be an upstander and not a bystander.
