This is a comforting fiction, but all you're doing is renaming the special and unfair treatment men give women to "assholes being assholes."

And sure. Yes. That's not untrue. But read the article. She's particularly singled out for special treatment.

Redefining the words or claiming it's actually women being "more sensitive" is just a word game to try making excuses. To do anything but agree, "This is sexist behavior."

Where did you read this? In the entire article she didn't even describe anyone speaking to her or about her except when they apologized, how can this be seen as singling her out?
