While this is no new observation, it is one that has become dreadfully apparent this week. I have been saturated with arrogance. Only by men I might add. Both the men and women in my life are extremely bright and talented, the difference between the two is he will emphatically tell you his fantasticness and she will not.
Why can men speak so prideful of their accomplishments? And not think for a second someone might interpret it as bragging, being big headed or full of themeselves? Even being a strong woman, I have a hard time “tooting my own horn.” I tend to turn my successes into a “group effort”, giving props to anyone and everyone.
You've got to think there is some connection to them making a significant amount more than us nationally.

I have a category on my blog entitled "bragging." Is that bad?
;)
Maggie, I love that you have that! It's about time we all stand up and shout our accomplishments and brag. Why the hell not if they can?
Guys can get away with being cocky and confident...girls really shouldn't stray outside the kitchen.
Kidding!!
Remember they have a bunch of years up on us in the business world...
