And sometimes it happens, it's not sensible by any stretch of the imagination but only a few decades ago in my world it was considered the norm for women to stay at home with the kids while men went tromping around being sexist pigs about 'manly' jobs. They still do it, but women usually put them in their place nowadays.
[All names are weird to her here, so that doesn't stand out as being different from any others.]
I'm starting to think myself truly fortunate for the world I come from. If women were treated this way, it wouldn't go over very well, especially for the ones who bend elements.
It probably doesn't go over well with the women who do own superpowers where I'm from, but there are fewer of those than there aren't, unfortunately. Show him up, I say. Make him eat his sexism.
Not as ominous as it sounds, but if I build structures in all the imPort cities to help the natives living there, it'll be difficult to avoid realizing that I'm the woman behind it all.
You really think you can do it? It seems like a big venture, even though you obviously know what you're doing with all your experience to back you up. (Worth completing if only to rub your success in that jerk's smug face.)
If I'm here long enough. Part of my desire to work with the government is that most of the individuals employed on the project will be native workers, and for that reason, the project will be able to continue in my absence.
I can leave a mark without having to be here to do it.

It'll be hard for him to avoid his mistake once it's put into motion.
