Well, the same goes for women, feminism and the claim that women have been facing sexism for hundreds of years. Of course, there has been laws against women in many countries (mine included) but what many fail to also mention is that the same laws (right to vote) also applied to most men (at least in my country). There wasn't really a sexist thing for the most part, but more of an economic elite that are the only ones that can vote. People claim the society was more sexist before, but I am not certain. There were clear gender roles but they also existed for a reason. How many countries have for example sent women to war historically speaking? Practically zero. Who gets saved from disasters first? Women and children.
There are loads of negative aspects to being a women in a society 500 years ago, but also a lot of positive things. People seem to have been brainwashed that women were treated horrible when in many cases this is simply not true. I am certain that most men suffered just as much as most women.
> why are you convinced you are right, and not missing something?
I am correct because I do not deny that women are facing sexism, I just use the same baseless claim like women do to rile people up. No one can know for sure which sex faces the most sexism at a certain time since most sexism isn't spoken of, that is especially true for sexism against men.
If someone is sexist towards you, you will probably not report that. Same goes for women. But it is now socially acceptable for women to complain about sexism, but when men do they face the kind of backlash I face in this thread. The same kind of thinking goes hand in hand with racism, that you can't be racist against white people. It's the same agenda or ideology but in slightly different places.
I do not know for sure that men face more sexism, but I have a good feeling about it and the number of white knights getting mad confirm my beliefs even more. Many in this thread claim that you can't be sexist against men or racist against whites. This is why I am right, because in their world it's not even to be counted and when that kind of ideology is wide-spread you know whatever is the reverse of their beliefs is more close to the truth.
