I agree that it's not about competing to see who can be the biggest victim. I doubt most women wish to be victimized in any way at all. Nonetheless, considering women have been oppressed by men historically and still are in many countries in the world, it seems like a lot of confidence would be required to assert that we have fully eradicated such systemic oppression here. It would require a level of confidence I do not have.
