It's hard to notice when there's so few women in a given field. The victims also often don't have an interest in publicizing incidents - most communities are small and you can't risk burning bridges. I'd also guess the nature of injustices has changed: since everyone has gotten the message by now, they avoid the prototypical sexist comments in groups (not entirely, though. PIs with tenure have little reason to change and I've exchanged looks of disbelieve with colleagues on more than one occasion). And yet people are getting annoyed by attempts to change the situation. Sometimes, I even understand their frustration with some of the more misguided ideas of postmodern feminism. What's more surprising is the level of hate people can muster for so-called 'swj twitter-activists etc' considering the minimal inconveniences they inflict – I vividly remember the absolute despair a good friend (smart, well-educated, ambitious but conscientious) experienced when she realized that she would never have a chance of advancement in the rather conservative profession she had chosen. As in: the boss-boss told her point-blank 'I know everyone in this business and you're never get anywhere as long as I'm alive. Why don't you go into nursing?'.
