In certain political movements the definitions of sexism and racism have been modified to only refer to racism and sexism in the presence of power (read: privilege).
If you mix this with intersectionalism, that means female bigotry towards men can by definition not be sexist because women are an underprivileged class compared to men (thanks to intersectionalism it doesn't even matter who has power over whom in any specific situation because every interaction is defined by the intersecting groups the individuals represent, not the individuals themselves).
Yes, this is crazy, but good luck trying to argue against it without being portrayed as evil incarnate, doubly so if you're any of: cis, white, male, hetero.
