    When I’m in a male dominated space and a woman joins, I feel myself over-compensating in trying to be welcoming to the woman. I want to be the “good guy”. I sort of feel like I should make that effort. But also I’d rather just get on with it and not have to think about it.

      Yup, same boat. I want to make sure they feel welcomed to the group but I don’t want to make them feel like an “other”
