I would go so far to say that a lot of the lack of ethics in corporations which have decided that lying to their customers is okay were to an extent created by women executives overcompensating for their position. For instance a male marketing executive might say "I'm not going to do that because I wouldn't want anyone to do that to me" whereas the woman marketing executive would be more prone to say "but it will increase the bottom line and we should do it because we can."
