I think it is women in all fields. I was talking to a lady friend about a job offer she got and advised she negotiate her salary. From her response it sounded as if I was trying to get her to loose the opportunity.

You can't really negotiate effectively unless you are willing to lose the opportunity.

Your friend might be aware that she has fewer opportunities and therefore be less willing to take this risk.
