I don't think you can shoehorn this into "economic anxiety". Sexism doesn't magically increase during recessions.

- vanattab 9y ago>Sexism doesn't magically increase during recessions. I am not so sure about that. I would not be at all surprised if racial resentment increases during times of economic turmoil. My understanding is that during tough economic times industries like alcohol/gambling preform far better then the market as a whole. I would not be surprised at all if scapegoating of "outgroups" (both black and white) incresses during economic tough times. See Nazi Germany circa 1930s.
