Thanks for your reply, I’ve experienced racism as well. But that is something that you can avoid by choosing your company. It is also NOT sanctioned by formal social systems or the law. There is recourse to address issues. I’d compare the issues we are talking about to millenially entrenched apartheid rather than racism.
These differences are profound, and while the issues may have similarities, they are an ocean apart. I think that is why women, including myself, struggle to communicate the depth of the issue.
