We have come a long way since the dark times of first-wave feminism when for a whole 70 years, women fought for their right to vote. During second-wave feminism, a fight began for a wider range of issues, from the workplace to de facto inequalities, family and many more.

With the French philosopher Simone De Beauvoir’s “The Second Sex” released back in 1949, it paved the way to the more equal society we live in. Today, we will shortly be heading into 2023, but sadly, there’s still a lot to do. From the gender pay gap to the pink tax, to the lack of women in positions of power, our society is still pretty much governed by misogynistic and sexist attitudes toward women.

Luckily, there’s this corner of Reddit known as “TrollXChromosomes” which joins people with zero tolerance for sexism of all kinds. Below we wrapped up the newest batch of the posts shared here, so scroll down and be sure to check out our previous article right here.

Sexism is linked to beliefs around the fundamental nature of women and men and the roles they should play in society. Sexist assumptions about women and men, which manifest themselves as gender stereotypes, can rank one gender as superior to another.

Despite legal frameworks set up across Europe and the US to prevent discrimination and promote equality, women are still underrepresented in decision-making roles, left out of certain sectors of the economy, primarily responsible for unpaid care work, paid less than men and disproportionately subject to gender-based violence. Sexist attitudes, practices and behavior contribute to these inequalities day to day.

First off, we have to make one thing very clear–sexism is harmful. Not only does it produce feelings of worthlessness, self-censorship, and changes in behavior, it causes a deterioration in health and wellbeing. While sexism lies at the root of gender inequality, it affects women and girls disproportionately.

According to data from Human Rights Channel, women spend almost twice as much time as men on unpaid housework (OECD countries). Moreover, a whopping 80% of women stated that they have been confronted with the phenomenon of “mansplaining” and “manterrupting” at work.

Mansplaining comes from the assumption that women and other non-men don't have the intelligence to understand the topic at hand, which is a sexist and misogynistic assumption. The mansplainer will explain something that the woman probably already knows already, usually in a condescending and infantilizing way.

To find out more about this type of aggression towards women that many of them face on a daily basis, especially at work, Bored Panda reached out to Nicole Froio, a feminist writer, researcher and sociology PhD student.

Despite the fact that mansplaining has received quite a lot of attention and acquired a really bad reputation, many men do it nevertheless. Froio argues that an unconscious ego is to blame, “where they believe they're the most knowledgeable person in the room.”

BamSteakPeopleCake , bearsmyteeth.tumblr.com Report

On other occasions, the feminist writer believes that men simply can't help themselves. In fact, Froio argues that men who mansplain are mostly oblivious to the fact that it’s demeaning to women. “Which is why I always recommend that people ask whether the person they're speaking to knows what they're talking about. It's just polite to check so you don't spend minutes telling them things they already know,” she added.

For any woman experiencing mansplaining in the work environment, Froio suggests to politely respond in ways that make men know women are also knowledgeable. “So for example, saying things like ‘I know’ or ‘Yes, that's exactly what I was saying!’ or simply showing the person you're speaking to that you know what they're talking about by interjecting with a piece of knowledge on the subject you are talking about.,” she said.

Most importantly, we have to start treating men's opinions as they treat everyone's opinions, Froio argues: “as opinions and not inherently knowledge.”

“Do not be afraid to interject and disagree. It's important to openly challenge this kind of behavior. I don't know if that means it'll be stamped out for sure, but it's a daily battle to make ourselves heard,” the feminist writer concluded.

I read an absolute game changer the other day, can't remember who or where so if anyone does... Basically, the time when women are most "irrational and might do something stupid because PMS hurr hurr hurr" is when their hormone profile most resembles that of a man. Increased testosterone, decreased oestrogen mean an irrational, bad-tempered and occasionally violent woman is merely acting like a man 1 week out of 4. I think it's probably men who shouldn't be allowed near anything more dangerous than a paperclip.

The problem, I'd say, is not that they're attracted to them, but rather that they act on their attraction in creepy ways and they can't take a hint that their advances are unwanted. I know some people might not agree with me, but I don't think there's anything wrong with attraction, just with actually acting on it

I didn't realize that I had been a victim of sexual abuse until I talked about it in therapy last year. A guy I went to school with would feel on my legs, put his hand between my legs, and try to put my hands between his legs. I had to go sit with two other guys to get him to leave me alone. Now whenever I see him I feel so dirty.

Because forced birth isn't about life, it's about power over women. The fact that once born, mother and child can drop dead, should be a hint. It's not pro life, it's misogyny, anti-abortion.
