Do you think the one and only problem with racial profiling by the police is that they experience mild surprise when they see a black person following the law?

No absolutely not

Do you think the largest problem with sexism is suprise that a man is a caring husband?

tbh I think the biggest problem with sexism is the inability of some men to empathise with women in any way and their propensity towards self-victimisation at the first hint of criticism.

the inability of some men to empathise with women

Thats a two way street, because i know for a fact that most women wouldnt want to be stereotyped like OOP did

The lack of empathy from OOP is not going to generate any empathy, I can promise you that

I hope you can take this as geniune advice and not just an attempt to win an argument, because its something I had to learn the hard way and doing so basically saved my life.

You'll never understand the true value of empathy until you can stop thinking of it as transactional. The more of it you can give away, the more you'll learn to reflect it back onto yourself, and that can cause miracles for your self worth.
