Well, there are clues. For example: a MAGA hat means "I don't think women are people". Many T-shirts with "clever" messages work the same way.

Many men think that they can pretend in front of women and then say "It was just a joke" to get away with comments and actions that show no respect for women. Or that they can treat one woman badly and then have a clean slate with the woman next to that woman. But that is not how it works. Women talk to each other, see how men behave with other women.

And your company also say things about you. So yes, many times people can know that you don't respect women before you talk to them.
