Oh definately. As much as there's arguments about male-dominated society, and I'm not saying there isn't sexism towards women, but in today's society women have a TON of things easier than guys as far as I see it. I mean, women can wear both male and female clothes and nobody cares but if a man wears a skirt its taboo, women are trusted with children a lot more than men (like, babysitters/teacher/ect.), and even as far as sexualy! Honestly, its not a big deal in the media today to see lesbians/bisexual women making out or whatever but as soon as they have gay/bisexual guys it's suddenly shocking.

I'm not saying that in itself isn't a form of sexism against women, not seeing them as a threat to society's views, but the point of it is, it's so much easier in today's society to be a girl than a boy. I mean, you just aren't faced with the same type of double standard as boys are. Like I said, my sisters don't get a thing said to them for playing with boy toys but as soon as my brother wants to play with their girl toys, somebody has something to say about it!
