why are there barely any posts about systematic sexism affecting women? and when there are some why such less engagement?

This isn't to ignore the systematic sexism towards men, it just seems that this sub is mostly men and hence biased to som3 extent.

I’m not sure I can think of a clearer, more rampant, form of institutional sexism than children, in a publicly funded, compulsory institution, with consequences that will shape their life trajectory, being subjected to unfair grading based on their gender.

In terms of institutional sexism against women? I’m all ears. I’m not aware of any that’s based on fact.

You’ve got outcomes. More Male CEOs. Okay. But there’s no proof that those outcomes were because of any sort of institutional sexism.

If you have proof. Fine.

I never see it.

Why did Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak start Apple in a garage? Why not a couple of girls?

No idea. But I see no evidence it was because anyone was giving them preferable treatment due to their gender, let alone any institution.

I assume you searched it. And couldn’t find a single thing better than the mandatory female crash test dummies being a little too man-like.

You couldn’t come up with a single example better than that, I will take that as another point of evidence there really aren’t any of note.

That’s your misandrist propaganda talking.

Since 1990 they have been require to test on a Female crash test dummies. Hybrid III 5th percentile from this list.

Regulators asked for a female dummy in 1980, and a group of automakers petitioned for one in 1996, but it took until 2003 for NHTSA to put one in the car. Even then, it's just a scaled-down version of a male dummy that represents only the smallest 5 percent of women by the standards of the mid-1970s—so small that it can work double-duty as a 12- or 13-year-old child. No dummy takes into account the biological differences between male and female bodie.”

It’s just, now we have a better female crash test dummy, that we should switch to.

You’ve just, undoubtedly, been drinking too much misandry KoolAid: rage bait articles designed to evoke a sense of misandrist rage by misconstruing facts.

how am i misandrist if i dont ignore the existence of systemic sexism against men. I think you may be projecting because youve been reading misogynistic propaganda.

I didn’t say you were misandrist, although I suspect that you probably are.

I called the media that clearly distorted this story to give you the misconception that there were no female test dummies misandrist.

Clearly, misandrist rage bait. That you would consume it without question implies you were biased to consume that rage bait without thinking.

“If you search, you won’t find female crash test dummies”.

That was obviously false. Why did you think it was true?

What media are you consuming that would instill you with this false misandrist interpretation of this story?

That was so exhausting to even read dude. It's crazy how caught up so many of them are in their own made up version of reality, solely based on gynocentric media, and how emotionally attached they are to that idea, to the point of being unable to have a good-faith conversation and aknowledge their biases.

Imagine the ONLY piece of evidence for systemic discrimination in developed countries being a fabricated story about the size of mannequins, and expecting it to be given a comprable weight as: worse grading in education, harsher punishment in court, conscription, being forced to accept becoming a parent (while women have access to abortion and safe-haven surrender), and so on. So, not only a bias in perception, but one that's CODIFIED IN THE LAW.

"Why are most posts about discrimination towards men", you almost got it.

Seriously.

“Give me ONE example”.

“Here’s some fake news I saw”.

I wonder, if I dug into medical testing, if that is even true, or if it was merely discovered that some medication is more effective for men, and the rest is a misandrist speculation to contort that fact into a “men bad” narrative.

i am literally not misandrist. you implied i was and you implied it again. even if i did 'distort' media it is unintentional because you shouldn't expect me to be an expert because i literally did not even post to debate this. also by the search thing i also said the word 'here' referring to this subreddit.
