For me, sexism was something I only really started to noticeably experience in my late 20s. This is probably because I had been gaining more independence in my life and more responsibility and authority professionally, and all of that reached a point where I stood out to the type of people who are likely to be sexist. It's easy not to be sexist towards a woman whom you see as already lacking in power because she isn't a threat or someone who needs to be "put in her place." I think that's why it's easy to grow up thinking feminism is unnecessary and outmoded. Girls don't experience a lot of the types of sexism they may have heard about because they're children who don't have jobs and aren't trying to run for political office. (They may still experience a lot of harassment and sexual aggression, but I think it's easier to convince oneself this isn't related to sexism and isn't a feminist issue.) I've been fortunate not to experience a lot of direct sexism academically, professionally, in fandom, or among my friends and family, but it still crops up often enough with the public at large.
