reverse sexism 

Not a thing. If you judge someone based entirely on their sex; it's just plain old sexism.

Sometimes used to suggest that sexism can only go one way (say, males can only be sexist against females) and that if a male experiences sexism it's not really sexism; it's reverse sexism. Or the opposite of sexism.

This is designed to downplay or justify the sexism the male is experiencing.

As a term, reverse sexism is as realistic as reverse theft. A Klan member may suggest that if a white person steals from a black person it's reverse theft.

I understand that you are being denied access to the domestic violence shelter because you're a man, but that's NOT sexism; it's only reverse sexism.

There is no such this as 'reverse sexism' towards men; it's just called sexism, plain and simple. Women can be sexist to men too, whether you like it or not, so just learn to accept it.

Moron: When a woman is sexist to a man, it's called reverse sexism.

Person with common sense: Nope, it's just called sexism.

Reverse Sexism 

This Notion Called Reverse Sexism Cannot and Does Not Exist.

Reverse Sexism is a power play card by feminism because it promotes reverse sexism or that movement is “sexist towards men.”.

In 2009, several academics made statements that indicate or may indicate, a belief that reverse sexism did not exist.

For example, in the preamble of a study on internalised sexism, Steve Bearman, Neill Korobov and Avril Thorne stated that reverse sexism was not a "meaningful phrase" because "while individual women or women as a whole may enact prejudicial biases towards specific men or toward men as a group, this is done without the backing of a societal system of institutional power.".

The same year, two assistant professors, Özlem Sensoy and Robin DiAngelo, wrote in an open letter to their faculty that reverse sexism does not exist because the word "sexism" refers to "power relations that are historical and embedded, and these relations do not flip back and forth" and because "the same groups who have historically held systemic power in the US and Canada continue to do so."

David Benatar's 2012 book, Second Sexism: Discrimination Against Men and Boys, expounded the theory that discrimination against males is often unnoticed and considered less critical than discrimination against females.

It’s not “reverse sexism” when women are just trying to level the playing field after centuries of oppression and discrimination. - Dr Charlotte Proudman
