Love in the office! Think of the consequences... could mean love-making or worse!<p>Here's my not-trolling theory: When mistakes happen in projects, or there's conflicts, smooth resolution is statistically more likely when the group is all male or all female. Maybe there's studies done on this, I haven't bothered to look, so could be wrong.<p>It could also be true that mixed gender groups statistically do better with maintaining an already smooth operation. So as long as things don't go off the rails, the mixed gender group might be the way to go.<p>Some - hopefully few - female employees have it engrained that despite it being 2011, they are at an unfair disadvantage to begin with. This may influence, subtly or otherwise, their thinking and judgement at times of conflict with male colleagues, and possibly in their general approach to work life. It happens, it's real, but hopefully not a big issue that prevents us making heaps of love, er.. I mean awesome. Heaps of awesome.
