If you admit that sexism exists in the case of Sarah Palin, how can you turn around and argue that it suddenly doesn’t exist for anyone else? Is it okay for someone who is not a feminist to argue that they’ve experienced or seen sexism, but feminists, by virtue of being feminists, have to be making it up if they make the same claim? Again, how very convenient for you.

Sexism absolutely exists. To say it doesn’t would be as atrocious as saying racism doesn’t exist. All of us, male and female, experience sexism from time to time. What we believe the OP was referring to was the habitual practice of some fringe groups to work on extremes. They fail to recognize their own radicalism. In other words, feminists make it out to be much worse than it actually is. Doing so helps keep a dying and increasingly marginalized ideology alive and in the mainstream.
