I am aware of the way women have fit into society throughout history, but it is no excuse for sexism. And there is a lot of male sexism in our society. It doesn't offend me, per se, but it is a bit exasperating.
Oh, crap, I was born with a penis. That means every TV commercial and sitcom will portray my sex as dumb brutes, foolish, insensitive, clumsy, etcetera. How nice.
*shrug* Two wrongs don't make a right, I guess you could say.
