Do women really feel it is necessary to sleep with their bosses to break through the glass ceiling?

Now before you give me a serve for posting a blog with this title, consider this: research from Center for Work-Life Policy published by business insider
shows that among director level/professional women 15 percent sleep
with their bosses and 37 percent get rewarded for it with a promotion or
some form of career progression.

The CWLP study also found that 34 percent of women know another woman
who has had an affair with a boss. Now sex in the workplace is nothing
new, but the link between sex and career progression needs more
examination.

Have you slept with the boss to get ahead at work?  Is it just a female thing and do women really feel it is necessary to sleep with their
bosses to break through the glass ceiling? Or are there other factors at
play?

I’m thinking back on some of the bosses I’ve had throughout my career and while I do believe being a woman had it’s advantages for me, I’m VERY glad I haven’t had to resort to this tactic to get noticed and promoted!!!
