Affirmative action for women is not the same as sexism; it is a corrective for sexism.
In a perfect world, affirmative action would exist only to counteract systemic bias (individual biases having already been eradicated).
The world is not perfect.
Affirmative action may be a counterbalance to systemic bias, or it may be thinly-disguised bigotry.
