Yes, some traditionally male lead industries were shitty towards women, but your sweeping generalization is wrong.

UAW striked over woman working there yes or no?

This is the claim.
One strike from one union 80 years ago when cultural attitudes were entirely different has no bearing on that claim.

I listed an example not all examples.

List them all then. It won’t matter. The plural of anecdote isn’t data. The one example you gave is clearly the exception that proves the rule, otherwise you wouldn’t have to go back 80 years to when pretty much every public institution mistreated and disrespected women.
You are not an honest actor, and I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know. It sucks that assholes seem to worm their way into every corner of the Internet.
