I'm ... not sure what to make of this. I'm not a woman, so not qualified to comment as such, but I can say without question that I've had to struggle through many similar issues, just take sex out of the picture - everything from watching classmates apparently breeze through classes that I've had to take four times to wondering if my career success is just because I'm a white American male.

Edit: I took a risk saying something like this, and have some karma to burn, but please, if you downvote, at least say why.
