Men in control at meetings

Why are men always trying to be in control at meetings??? Honestly, I feel men are on a power and control trip. The men tend to direct the conversations, define the topics and interrupts constantly. According to Wood, men generally exceed women in non-verbal efforts to exert control. Men tend to use greater volume to be heard and stronger influences for their ideas. To me, this is frustrating when meetings are for everyone to collaborate together and share ideas. When there is a dominate control, not much is accomplished and goals are not set and attained. To me, women have come a long way in the corporate industry and we deserve a fair chance!
