I was actually joking.. but you don't have to be a certain gender to understand sexism, i grew up surrounded by women, i like to think that i have a more vast knowledge of women and how they think/work than the average man, i know how infuriating it could be.. but i don't really think that suggesting women are jealous of other women is a sexist thing, more just people being ignorant.
