Why are some men so upset with the idea that treating women differently can promote and teach Sexism.

[The Straight Story]

4. I think where the problem lies is folks assigning motivations to others ad hoc

You do X more for women then men and you are sexist and harming women overall is the general idea.

It is the idea that even the most simplest of things is something we have to pause and ponder over before doing what to so many comes natural.

Growing up your mom tells you it is polite to open doors for women and let them go first. She is a woman. You trust her. You come here and find out your mom was a repressed sexist person who is stupid and only the smart folks here can make the world right and teach you the true paths.

It's as though some people have a vested interest in being outraged and need to find ways to justify their position/job/etc so then spend hours pouring over every action possible to find a way to show how they are being repressed.

I won't hold a door open for any woman anymore. Or let them cut ahead in line (and I didn't yesterday at save-a-lot). My mom was an evil repressed dumbass and now I am ashamed of her and all she taught me because she obviously hated and wanted to repress other women. I am not even sure at this point if me having sex only with women is sexist or not because it means I treat them different - why DON'T I want to have sex with men? Is it because I like power and see women as weaker?

Question everything because even telling a woman she looks nice, or 'hot', is repressing and deeply hurting them. I don't tell men they look hot. So yes, I have learned a lot in this whole debate.

Women are constant victims and some of the poor ladies don't even know it. Next time I see some dumb ass man hold open a door for one, help them with something, I will rush over and apologize to them on behalf of more intelligent and progressive men who should know better.
