I don't think you have that?
We as White South Africans are planing daily how to help our families flee
Talk to me about discrimination when you have to deal with that

I think you have missed my point as I have no doubt that generally women have experienced discrimination considerably more than men and experience it on a daily basis. Most women will have experienced it at some time in their life to varying gegrees. Women of colour and from certain religions have the double-whammy of being discriminated against for sex and race. Given that women of all races make up half the world’s population it seems obvious they are the most discriminated against.
Certain religions and races may experience more discrimination in the West where they are minorities but women everywhere experience it including in the modern world.
I know someone from South Africa who certainly doesn’t have the issues you mention. She lives here but has family in SA and regularly goes back to see them during the holidays.
Obviously I don’t know your personal situation but I do know that due to the sheer numbers of women in the world that makes the discrimination of women more prevalent because it crosses all boundaries including class, race, colour religion - you name it.
