Hey Ed hopefully you'll read this at some point because I know you didn't want to tangentialise too heavily in Genders (Zero Sum) Game: the thread but I wanted to know more if you're ok sharing over here in a more "conversationally structured" sort of forum!
What kind of casual early-onset sexism do you see your kids saying/doing? In those kind of situations (or in general) do you feel safe confronting the kids about it? I could understand why you wouldn't, because I certainly don't get the opportunity to discuss sexism with my students in a formal classroom environment (although Japan's issues with sexism are a different beast to sexism in New Zealand or elsewhere, for instance), so I have to stick with challenging assumptions they make when we chat outside the classroom.

peace to the unsung peace to the martyrs | i'm johnny rotten appleseed
clouds is shaky love | broke as hell but i got a bunch of ringtones
eyes blood red bruise aubergine | Sue took something now Sue doesn't sleep | saint average, day in the life of
woke up in the noon smelling doom and death | out the house, great outdoors
staying warm in arctic blizzard | that's my battle 'til I get inanimate | still up in the same clothes living like a gameshow
