Yes saying that women are inherently worse at expressing their opinions or being independent thinkers by implying they just go along with the consensus in whatever group they are in is fucked up and sexist and you should be ashamed of having that opinion. It's disgusting.
It's not an opinion, it's an observation. I have no horse in this race. 🤷
