Yes, this. This is pissing me off so much. Yes, it happens. It happens all the time. As long as people sit back and say "that's just the way it is" it will keep happening. Sexism only shrinks when people stand up and fight it. I, for one, try to stand up against sexism or any other ism when I see them happening. And sexism is never, ever justified. Ever. I don't see how that can be up for debate. And yes, Rachel is just an actress. She might be in a higher class in society than others. She might be privileged in other areas. That doesn't make the treatment of her okay, and it doesn't mean we shouldn't be upset at how she is being treated.
