14. That's why some groups felt the need to redefine sexism

to include a power element.

Only those in charge can be sexist. And it's not based on immediate power structures, but rather on the vague concept of "The Patriarchy". So a female boss does not have power over her male employee. In fact he has all the power because of the patriarchy. So she cannot be sexist against him.

It's absurd of course but some people are always prone to these delusions.
