    While I agree, men face sexism too, in a different way. It feels like minimizing their experiences, to have someone come in here and say, well, actually, men face sexism as well.

    I am a guy, for the record. I just finally started listening to the women in my life who have been telling me for years that they face this stuff.

      I don’t think it’s minimizing to acknowledge that sexism is endemic and cuts both ways.

              The fact that you have to pretend I’m angry for pointing out you were a cunt just to pretend you’re in the right is sad

                  Never said it was the same thing, don’t put words in other people’s mouth. You said it minimizes people’s experience to point out that sexism isn’t exclusively experienced by one sex, which is a silly thing to say, and was the point of discussion, because of your original “if you haven’t experienced sexism you’re a man” comment
