Found it at last! (Google is terrible for searching G+ o_0 ) Stereotype threat mentioned by a coupla people there, and by others elsewhere—the term appears to be gaining currency in my social circles.
The poster in question has a bit of a habit of generalising from themselves to the world, so I would take it as personally anecdotal before basing a huge amount upon it.
Fair enough. Still, it wouldn’t surprise me too much if it were true. I think a lot of what we call sexism is actually a Victorian variant rather than the whole range of possible sexisms.
Is the discussion still available?

Thanks. There wasn’t much new to me there, but I hadn’t heard about sexism being structured differently in Nicaragua, which was quite interesting.
