I think it's quite telling that even the OP used subconscious male privilege in defining the question.
Loud males were told to "pipe down", and a similar female had her "bad habits" corrected.
Male privilege is definitely a thing. Isha's meeting example isn't an isolated incident, though it's absolutely interesting to see one person on both sides of the coin.
My wife has 24 direct report employees working for her, she has the most experience in the company, the most experience in the field, the highest relevant education (Ph.D.) in her department, is very well liked and trusted, and is constantly told by extra-departmental leadership that she is the greatest asset the company has.
Her male subordinates and peers still constantly talk over her.
Gender equality is big in our house, even before our two daughters were born, and was the subject of her dissertation.
Male privilege is real, feminism isn't an attack on men, deniers are just plain wrong. It's not an opinion, it's a fact. Sorry if that hurts your feelings.
