Explanation:

In the research conducted by feminist Paige Edley, at an Interior Designs company where she worked for six months, she made some observations of what it meant to have worked in an environment that was made up of women.  

She observed that;

1. the women tried to avoid conflict by not making many complaints about the owners, thus silencing their voice.

2. the owners of the company do not like it when workers who are mostly women take out time for family concerns such as tending to their sick children.

3. also, communication was stereotyped and labeled as women talk. The owners of the company did not walk the talk even though they were women.
