One of the biggest differences in how a modern society operates unequally isn't whether the people who screwed something up actually did so, but who gets endless second chances without being tripped up on their way, and who doesn't.

Of course, this changes everything. The people with endless second chances don't have to be so defensive. They can experiment, screw up, do something terrible etc. Meanwhile, those who know that once they're down, they're going to be kicked... Very few good options there.

Overly defensive: not enough risk-taking, too bad. More experimental? Well, one screw-up and that's it. Point out the unequal treatment? Well, you did screw-up, stop whining and trying to blame others. Meanwhile... LOOK GENIUS OVER THERE *on his seventh free try*.

Yeah, but they wouldn't be quicker to believe her because she's a woman, so much as no one is going to be quick to believe a word Ted Cruz says. That's conditioned experience, that is. :)
