“Women are made to wear make-up and high heels. Low-cut tops are encouraged to persuade men to sign on the dotted line.

Coke was openly spoken about across the desks — and applauded — with some guys taking it almost daily.
“At a firm in South West London, I was told it was mandatory for women to wear high heels and skirts were preferred. A few months in, a married, 50-year-old male manager with three kids became increasingly tactile — chasing after me, ruffling my hair, complimenting my appearance every day. “Her boss would comment on her breasts each day and encourage her to ‘get them out’ before a viewing.
