I didn't say that it was easy for guys. I said that I didn't think that sexy = competent affected guys to the same degree that it did women, referring to general going about one's business (such as in the workplace).

Ok, that's fair. Understood. But I think that would depend on who was in charge. I've had plenty of female bosses that would gladly pass me up for a cute guy anyday and they have. From a historical POV, the same goes for women in the "chased around the desk" department.
