Re: Discrimination against Women:

(Anonymous) 2013-04-27 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
Most of the time, it's little things that add up.

Some of my friends are nerdy gamer dudes who make a ton of sexist jokes, where the "joke" is basically "It's funny because the woman did the thing and all women are like that, amirite? LOL WOMEN."
I don't bother calling them out because it takes too much energy to do that all the time; and I'll just be dismissed as not having a sense of humour, a feminazi, etc.

People not taking me seriously, because I'm both short and female, so I look cute. So they treat me like a child: talk down to me, simplify things, assume I don't understand things. (ESPECIALLY when it's anything to do with maths, computers, or cars.)

My parents also constantly assume I'm going to get married and have kids. It's always "WHEN you have kids..." A lot of sexism comes from older guys. I was helping wash up at church the other day, and this old guy says, apropos of nothing, "You'll make a good housewife someday!"

Yes, because I don't have any dreams or goals or causes beyond that. No, I don't really want to write novels, or graduate from uni, or travel the world, or publish research, or fight for a cause - you're right, what I TRULY want, deep down, is to make babies. Because I'm a woman and biology/religion says so.

Most days it makes me feel stupid and weak and just kinda tired, but I'm so used to it I don't consciously notice it anymore.
