I am a feminist myself, a classical feminist - i.e. I think feminism is about two things:

1) equality of the sexes
2) acknowledgement that the inequality is currently in men's favor

However, I do think there are some domains where women have priveleges. For instance, a single male hanging out at a park will be considered a child molesstor more readily than a single female. Sex clubs charge single males the most and let single females in free, attesting to sexual value of women (that most of us are already aware of). There are also issues in divorce that can discriminate against men.

Of course, it's also region specific. I grew up in a red state blue-collar town. Sexism was obviously the norm there.

Sexism hurts boys too - we're expected to bottle feelings and chase tail to prove we're worthy of our genfer.
