Racially, every ethnic group has at one time been enslaved, conquered, abused.
Sexually, yes, we played better years ago on the field of competition.
Women did not fight at school, it was not 'feminine'. Nowadays they do girl on girl 'beatdowns' and film it.
Opportunity for women has grown and that is a good thing, but much has been lost too.
OTOH, this has zero to do with the issue that was non racial and non sexual.
