Not really? That's pretty common in feminism, and with frustrations that women express with men, to say that men tend to experience and react to a sexist society in a different way from women. It doesn't necessarily mean an absolutist statement about all women and all men, though white secondwavers often thought like that.

That said, yeah, I have definitely experienced some sexist type patterns from female partners :/ Going out with a woman wouldn't solve all your sexism problems OP though you knew that already right?

Yes, really.

Because while it's no secret that men and women are typically treated and socialized differently, OP's last statement coupled with the belief that her boyfriend being a woman would get rid of all the tendencies she doesn't like, doesn't fit with what you're saying.If it did, there'd be no reason for so many people to be all "you know women can be sexist and misogynist too, right?" As you yourself have just done.

Saying there's things he just wouldn't say if he was a woman isn't necessarily the universal statement you're after. There's some things that dudes say that I throw my hands up at and go "wow! you've clearly never experienced street harassment in THAT way!" I've also had a few straight women express envy to me and say "gee I wish I was with a woman" or "gee I wish my hubby was a chick sometimes haha" in a way I find quite annoying, but it also jives with what OP is saying. I don't know how serious OP is in really philosophically wanting a female boyfriend to make things better, or whether it's just standard straight woman venting of frustrations, which one feminist I read likened to patching up the troops before they go back into battle. No one despises the arseholishness of men quite like the women who love and live with them!

But anyway, I dunno that we're disagreeing that much!
