    Really interesting article! I know that I don't always advocate for myself as much as I should and i'm definitely working on it. I think it is really important to teach women that it is OK to negotiate and self-advocate. However, I am not convinced that negotiation is the only thing holding women below the glass ceiling. When I DO negotiate for myself, I often receive negative consequences that I don't think men always do. Since i've started trying to negotiate on my own behalf more I find that i'm considered a "ball-buster" or something to that effect even though i'm only matching my male colleagues self-advocacy levels. Encouraging women to negotiate is important - but so is changing attitudes about what is "appropriate" for women to do. Reply
