With a high-powered job working in sales in London, 23-year-old Jasdeep Singh seems to have it all. But there is one thing he believes is standing in the way of his career progression: women. He is convinced the females he works with have it easier, get more done for them and are tiptoed around by male co-workers frightened of being accused of sexism – or worse.
'Things have gone too far in favour of women,' he tells the Mail. 'It's become quite extreme in certain ways. 'Don't get me wrong, it's good to highlight some of the issues they face. But I do feel discriminated against. It's definitely easier for women in the workplace.
'It's basic stuff, such as if there's a choice for someone to be on their feet all day or someone to sit down, the guy will be asked to do the former while the woman gets to do the latter.'. Things have gone too far in favour of women, says Jasdeep Singh. It's become quite extreme in certain ways.
Even social interactions with the opposite sex are fraught for men these days, he says. 'I do feel I have to think through every possible way a woman can interpret something as simple as 'Do you want a coffee?'. 'Am I being patronising or sexist? Women don't have the same cautious behaviour with us.
'They think very differently. There's a certain entitlement.'. His views may sound shocking to many women who feel men are still the more entitled sex, yet Jasdeep is not an outlier. According to a groundbreaking survey commissioned by Secrets & Lives, a significant number of British men display anti-feminist sentiment.
