You belong in the category of normal people. The people the majority of this world consists of, or so I hope. I simply cannot imagine that there are women in first world countries that are only surrounded by jerks, who grope them and make rape jokes every day. And most feminists come from first world countries.

But really, explain to me how can a healthy middle-class 20-something girl with a nose job be "oppressed"? She literally chooses everything about her life, clothes, education, food, entertainment... a lot of people, both men and women, have no access to many of those things. So is she oppressed because there is a fashion standard? Because not enough vidya game characters are female? Because some idiot thinks she's sexy and decides it's ok to yell it out loud on the street?
There are RUDE people around, there are BAD people around. This isn't a sexism issue, this is a "bringing up your kids" issue. No use trying to fix grown-ass men, instead, try teaching your kids about the feelings of others.

I also checked out everydaysexism. Nothing even remotely close has ever happened to me in my 21 years. I'm not sheltered, I hang out with people a lot. Maybe it's the people I hang out with that matter. Or maybe it's because I don't have a victim complex.
