Wow, it sounds like perhaps you have been called a chauvinist for expressing these same opinions before! Perhaps instead of blocking out that critique you can meditate on it. To be honest, you are hitting all of their talking points.
I didn't, as I said I live in a very conservative country and I'm considered extreme left-wing here :) I've been called communist and libtard on the other hand :) I don't particularly care because I don't depend on my reputation for living like scientists and youtubers do.
But I've seen people like Thunderfoot called such names and dismissed on first sight and I don't think that's fair.
Sure, there's even a name for that kind of factors: sexism. That's the reason pay gap is a problem that is talked about but life expectancy gap isn't.
Feminism was supposed to fix sexism not to reinforce it, though.
