The difference is that while men are censured and ostracized for their sexist behavior, women are often encouraged, even applauded for it. If what's being put out by entertainment and media isn't enough, hang out with a group of FAs on an overnight and listen for yourself. Better yet, watch a group of women at a batchelorette party.

Although convenient, males aren't the only bad actors.

You might be hearing that from reality television shows and some of your flight attendants. But you sure aren't hearing that from your female captains and first officers. I guarantee that.
