Frustrating Negotiations

Question

In Los Angeles, many companies hire for projects, this is especially true in the entertainment industry. How do you handle the frustration and anxiety of being the manager, or the contractee?  I have often struggled on both sides of the negotiation. What tips do you have for women especially who are negotiating for contract work?

I have found that contract work in entertainment is particularly difficult for women. We have even fewer protections than if we are full-time employees- where we at least have the 'appearance' of being protected. Entertainment is still a 'boys club' but contract work seems harder to get parity in...

Can you provide more details? What about the contract situation is difficult? Is it the negotiation or the execution? Is there something specific to women contractors?
