Women who think "I would be treated better and be respected if I were a man" do not understand that men do not automatically get respect. It has to be earned. Women, on the other hand, get better treatment than most men do just for being women. They do not have the perspective of what it would mean to earn respected status.

But they are correct that they sense that they are not held as at high of esteem as the top men. Because we all know they did not need to put in effort for most of them.
