I think you may have had some really unfortunate experiences. My best
bosses have been female (and I've been blessed with a couple of good
male ones too). Right now my boss's boss is a female who ought to be
dropped in the moat with the alligators, but she's a case of a person
who was never in management who jumped into a fairly high-level job.
She has no clue. That -- among other things -- may have been a big
part of the Palin disaster: Alaska really is a small pond.
