techo de cristal 24
This phrase is used in situations where a person can climb positions within an organization and obtain a better position or a higher rank, but those who must promote it deny the possibility and put a limit, for reasons of gender, race, religion, for any reason that can not be publicly whitewashed since it is always discriminatory. That way you put a ceiling on your aspirations, which is real but does not look, as if it were "glass".
