Can someone provide a list of areas in which women are systemically oppressed?

The mere fact you're asking this question PROVES WOMEN ARE OPPRESSED!

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek, patriarchy!

They'll say the wage gap. Except that income is only worth anything if it buys you health, better life expectancy, a better work/life balance, shelter, access to family and freedom.

So they'll fall back on rape and DV and plug their ears indicating men and women are victims of both.

Or they'll fall back on the apex fallacy, ignoring the fact that the reason why a minority of men are on top is because all men are expendable thus can be expended in the process of producing so called "power". And being on top means sacrificing the power to command compassion from others.

Here's the full list:

In the western world, women have it better, period. The educational system is tailored towards them. The law is on their side. They have a vast network of support institutions. They (sometimes) have women quotas for highly paid, non-dangerous jobs. And that's only the systematic dimension. Socially, they also have much more power than men.

Preaching to the converted here, you are better off asking in /r/AskFeminists

being treated like a child when you break the law, or not being forced to die for your country

They would argue that being treated like a child does keep a person down.

Oppression maybe but i'd think honestly those that are black, asian, etc are more affected by some points of "oppression" but i could be wrong on this.

White women benefit as much or more than white men in the west.

Women are not allowed to register for selective service, and therefore cannot be systematically called upon like cattle to serve as cannon fodder upon congressional authorization of conscription. Clearly this is oppression.
