Can you just get to your point without asking stupid questions?
"You can't get promoted in your Career if you are not Married"

Just wondered how you defined what a good family man was and how you would know that about a co-worker.
Sorry asking a question about a statement you put forth seems to aggravate you

I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds!
Married people are less trustworthy with them having affairs and whatnot 
Why you think they pushed to get people back in the office? Bc they were fukking around with their "work wives /husbands"

No problem. Hopefully it makes you feel better about yourself and less defensive about statements you make.

Kevin Samuels said something similar. 20 years ago I'm sure that was more of an unspoken rule in many organizations but I don't believe it anymore.
If anything companies are more concerned about their leadership being politically correct, straight and narrow. Too many single and married men alike crossing boundaries with female coworkers setting the company up for a MeToo HR nightmare. I know how to play that game even at the risk of sounding dry to my management peers because I very rarely mention my dating life to them, even though the rest are married.

But some questions are illegal. You could report it to EOO.
Doesnt matter as much these days, but I’m sure it still gives you a small boost on a subconscious level in management’s eyes
This is true. Gen Z is helping to rewrite work culture norms, and I personally couldn’t be more happy about it. I have spent my whole life at my company, out of “loyalty”, and at this point, I’m not going anywhere, but to see these kids nowadays know their worth, and also know that these companies don’t give a fukk about their “loyalty” is awesome!

Married Men Paid More Than Single Men, Get More Interviews
Even when their credentials are identical, married men get more job interviews and higher salaries. That’s not a reward for productivity; it is discrimination.

That was a Swiss study. But same holds true in the US. Y’all think these dudes taking over but the guys at the top are still old white men with old fashioned values. Why the hell you think we all ain’t working from home even though it’s proven productivity goes up and it costs less?
In the United States, married men sit atop the wage ladder. At every age, they earn a significant premium over their bachelor counterparts. Some speculate that this is because marriage makes men more productive, while others point out that high-income earners are more attractive partners.Nov 15, 2021

This can be true in some situation where the job is extremely political such as literal politics.
