That doesn't mean it's always as such, though. The world isn't exactly full of absolutes.
I'd say that's debatable in itself. Men are often overlooked when it comes to sexism (and stuff like domestic abuse which still isn't taken seriously across the board, let alone when a wife beats up her husband).
People just tend to be dismissive of anything that doesn't fit their agenda and so they believe biased studies that focus on one particular aspect of 'sexism' or 'racism' and ignore the fact that it's happening all over the world to a great many different people from all sorts of varied backgrounds.
