Fox News ‘Girls Gone Mild’ Segment Warns Women Not to Raise Voices: ‘Don’t Talk Too Much’
A Fox & Friends segment on Monday warned women looking to succeed in business “not to raise their voices” and not to talk too much.
Fox News host Steve Doocy introduced Sylvia Ann Hewlett’s book, Executive Presence, by advising that women should wear “well-cut jeans with a colorful top,” while an on-screen graphic told them “not to raise their voices.”

Hewlett explained that a lot of women from the South were taught to “fill the air with words… but oftentimes that undermines you, just rambling.”“Don’t talk too much,” Doocy recommended.
“Exactly,” Hewlett agreed. “Interestingly, men commit a lot of these mistakes, not just women. And there are some particular hurdles for people of color.”
