        Sexism is the systematic inequitable treatment of girls and women by men and by the society as a whole Its a form of internalized oppression which consists of oppressive practices that continue to make the rounds even when members of the oppressor group are not present

          Why are women excused but men not? This is why people are downvoting you, you’re holding a double standard.

          Women are free from blame because it’s “internalized” by society but men are apparently immune to that same society? No “internalized” excuse for them?

          It’s pathetic and infantilizes women, it doesn’t defend them.
