Agreed. People seem to be incredibly invested in believing that intelligent people could ever be sexist.

When I've called out people over the years for being sexist or racist, often they don't even realize immediately they'd said something offensive because it usually is subtle rather than overt - off-color jokes, sexualized images or inappropriate topics.



It reminds me of the whole Skepchick versus Dawkins & the "MRAs" drama that happened months back.
