I've worked with all women and with all men. It sucks both ways
Women have long nails for a reason. They are quite effective at looking pretty one minute and deadly the next.
Men have another anatomy part that is great for defining territory. Mess with that and you're in for it! Stinks too.
Don't believe either sex gangs up on somebody better than the other. They both do quite effectively.
The only solution is diversity. But if you are stuck in one of these situations... In women dominated environments make friends with the female "lead"... The alpha. Those middle school rules still apply. In a male dominated environment make friends with everyone. Play the silly games. You know... Get to know which ever sport they are betting on. Play ping pong. Make an appearance at the bar. Do I do this with any real skill? Absolutely not.
