Most places where I have worked in recent years, much of the mid-level personnel of both sexes were pretty good. In senior management, many men were incompetent...but almost every woman was. The organizations worked so hard to promote women that they were given opportunities ahead of men with higher qualities and promoted without requisite skills/abilities. They were able to avoid the tough, lower-level assignments that men had to take and be successful at to move up. This did them a disservice and set them up for failure. It was especially bad in one organization where the top 20-25 people in management were all women. They didn't even consider men for the senior positions (and the most skilled simply left/went elsewhere)...so I guess it works both ways.
