I don't understand sexism

Can you tell me why do you think that women/men can't do some things? Just tell me why do you think that women can only wear pink, talk about boys and in general being like a princess? Or why do you think a man should be strong, never shows his emotions and likes football? As a girl my mom tells me to cover up cause i have hair on my legs and "it's ugly for a girl". Another time i was going to my bestfriend's home (he is a boy) and i was wearing shorts but my mom told me to cover up cause she was scared that my best friend that i know for 3 years was going to r4pe me just because he is a boy! And now that im writing this im realizing that my mom is saying that wearing shorts justify r4ape! I don't know if this is sexism or just stupidity.

who's to say it isn't both? sexism is inherently stupid cause we're all human. we can all do the same activities Regardless of sex!! some sex-based biological advantages DO exist but they don't mean that the opposite sex is completely incapable of having the same level of talent in a sport or activity or whatever !!
and i totally get what ur saying abt the clothes. one time i was over at my friend's house wearing shorts and my mom said to not wear them next time to not be a 'bad influence' on their family.. like.. it's just shorts :/ no one's gonna go out and have sex and do drugs because they were INSPIRED by my clothes
i'm sorry that u have to deal with all those comments :c hoping that things get better for u in the future !!



Thankss, im Sorry that happend to you. I remember even another time were i had my tomboy fase and the first time I showed with baggy clothes my mom said "why do i have a male daughter?" I felt hurt that time but i didin't say anything.
