Well, aren't we all men and women, the core of sexism. It's not a problem to make a difference, it's just the value that is put on the differences that is the problem. It's a competition of who is the best, who is worth more for this human race, the man or the woman. Personally, I guess it's the woman part, but still I see men and women not as equal but I do value them equal. The male body is stronger so it has to fulfill tasks that is related to that. A woman can have children and needs the man just for a few minutes, but the guy often makes his role invaluable, just by saying so.
No, I enjoy accepting the differences realizing that my behavior is a little different towards women than towards men. Not because one or the other is better, but just because one is a man and one is a woman.
That's all.

Empathy and compassion for all helps, without patronizing.

Interesting. A guy who used to work with me in my office said he could tell by my voice if I was talking to a man or woman on the phone. Of course, that was 30 years ago. I've learned a lot since then, mainly from my wife and daughter. I hope I'm rid of even the benevolent sexism, that I'm sure I got from the era I grew up in.

I guess I am one of those kind sexists, although I think that I am an equal opportunist when it comes to showering my environment with gifts of kindness and courtesy. I might seem a little over the top when it comes to the elderly and the physically challenged, but I'm pretty sure that I could produce a graph or pie chart to show that my kindness and assistance is split nearly perfectly (within the 3% margin of error of your average crayon), between the two sexes. I have a few feminist friends who have no problem calling me an asshole in the middle of a busy grocery store...sometimes with considerable volume, but I am 100's of times more likely to hear the friendly greeting of "Hey Dickhead", from men and women alike, when I walk into my local Pub....so I'm gonna just put a little check in the win column.

Times change, and we must change with them or, at least, adapt. Shouldn’t we always be reevaluating ouselves and our behaviors?
