It's a tale that's all too familiar for many women. You share your idea at work,mystique swedish erotice beat em and eat me but you're met with silence and an almighty shrug.
Immediately after, that very same idea is put forth by a man. He claims it as his own. And, everyone loves it.
Well, there's a new word for this age-old practice: "hepeating." And, it's almost certainly happened to you.

Gugliucci defines hepeating as "when a woman suggests an idea and it's ignored, but then a guy says the same thing and everyone loves it."
When it comes to saying the word in everyday conversation—which we will absolutely be doing—Gugliucci included a note on usage. "I got hepeated in that meeting again," is one suggested usage, along with: "He totally hepeated me!"

While many who've experience hepeating first-hand will be nodding their heads and muttering "same!" the reality of this practice is frustrating. And, it feels like a move to undermine and discredit the intellectual property of women in the workplace.
Gugliucci also noted that hepeating doesn't just happen to women. It also happens to women and men of colour. And, she believes that many people aren't willing to admit this uncomfortable truth.

One woman responded to Gugliucci's tweet, adding that she was coining the term "rewhite" for every time "a person of color says something and is ignored until a white person says it."
