Shocking story, just heard how a man held a female under the water in a swimming pool by her feet after she had repeatedly overtaken him during lane swimming.
Having been a regular swimmer in the past I’ve been subjected to aggressive male swimmers in pools who thunder down lanes with every intention of hitting you as they pass.

@drewnogal saidAs a swimmer myself I can concur that pool etiquette is under threat.

@divegeester saidDriving etiquette as well. Surprising what women drivers describe, relative to what you experience as a man. I get the impression a lot of 'men' find it easier to gesticulate at women than at other men.

The post that was quoted here has been removedAgree with your statement about the fears of aggressive male drivers.
I thought Queen's Gambit did address sexism in the early stages of the hero's playing career, but I would agree it was minimised and portrayed as melting away as she showed her ability, where you could easily imagine pockets of increased virulence as that ability was resented/envied.
