I like some level of rudeness provided that is done at the same level, i.e. no power abuse. Was York nicer? Dunno what do you think?

Undergrad? I was often told by my peers that I didn't belong there because I wasn't as English as they wanted me to be and a woman.

I think the phrase "women can't code" and "Olivia is stupid" was a 1-2 times per week occurrence. There were only 5 women in 100 men in CS.

Hearing "Olivia is stupid" so often to my face made me realise I'm actually often the cleverest person in the room but nobody realises.

It was a big eye-opener to me that all these men were willing to say this to my face. I learned a lot about what they think about the world.

Obviously you had quite a hard time. Mine was not easy either but I wasn't alone and I was a bit older.

I was struggling just being in the UK and was very very very lonely and alone.
