I've even seen this happen within a single meeting, its the most common sexist behavior I notice. Newer female staff would suggest something, older male would say it later in the meeting and get the approval and action from it. We had a private channel with us younger-ish people on the team and she was very open about it there, and was comfortable with us overemphasizing when she had come up with ideas. Things like "yeah I agree with [her] idea" when it was appropriate and speaking up more in those cases. If she wouldn't have brought it up casually like that and discussed it openly we wouldn't have been as aggressive either, and this has happened with a few female colleagues.
This sounds like a very toxic environment, i'm sure it happens but i've never withnessed anything like this
I wouldn't have noticed as much if the co-workers weren't comfortable casually discussing it, cause I'd be focused on my own priorities in the meetings same as everyone else, or I might not think to attribute an idea to a specific person and just say "I like this idea" instead of "I like their idea." Most of the time I don't think people are doing this maliciously either, I think they're just absorbing the information, and people who are less outspoken or women end up not getting credited as much. Sometimes it's a matter of whoever said something the loudest gets the credit for it even if they aren't taking ownership for the idea. The things that help deal with these issues that affect women at a higher rate are just good for everyone else as well.
