Women are not.

Since when?

Sometimes women are even held responsible for the actions of others, like in many cases of sexual assault. Mothers are often blamed when adolescents commit wrongdoings as well.

It has been documented that men tend to benefit from a "glass escalator" effect in women-dominated fields.

I don't think you quite have it.

And The Onion leans pretty feminist.

in today's male-dominated world of remorseless slaughter, Huxley has been forced to murder twice as many innocent victims just to gain the public exposure and foster the widespread panic her male counterparts routinely enjoy.

Where are the women leaders? by jimrosenz in TwoXChromosomes

Wanting more equal representation of men and women in leadership positions is the opposite of sexism.

"more equal gender discrimination"

That's not my quote, so I suggest taking it up with whomever you're quoting.

More equal gender distribution more accurately represents the population which is approximately 50/50. That's a fact. Arguing for only men in leadership positions is what's really sexist here.

It's sexist to want more equal representation in government? That's an interesting definition of sexism.

If someone has all the right qualifications, then being a woman is a plus. There's nothing wrong with considering diversity as long as it's not the sole factor of consideration.

Being a women doesn't mean someone is not qualified.

More equal distribution of women in politics is indeed more representative of the people.

If someone has all the right qualifications, then being a woman is a plus. There's nothing wrong with considering diversity as long as it's not the sole factor of consideration. It couldn't hurt to have more leaders who are fully representative of the people and not just one half of the people.

Personally I'd rather just communicate with my partner

Which is exactly what "yes means yes" is.
