Just because I don’t see sexism in ACs doesn’t mean I don’t realize it exists. I’m a woman. Of course I’m aware. I just choose to focus on the bigger, more problematic, issues.

I think there are a lot of reasons. The article I linked to above offers some ideas. I agree w them, and I think there are others-like outside of the West, it is simply a lot more dangerous for women to be open atheists.

Unfortunately, a lot of feminist rhetoric today crosses the line from attacks on sexism to attacks on men.

But yes, sexism definitely needs to be attacked-through educating men that are unaware, mostly. I think most aren’t intentionally sexist, but there are definitely some who are. - 1 more reply
