That is the thing though - in the UK context, everything you identify there is a class issue.
Yes, the experiences of the woman and the man would be different (as indeed are the vast majority of invididuals experiences when compared to someone else) but the outcomes are likely to be very similar; they'll live in the same standard housing, have the same lack of job security, have a similar standard of (lack of) access to public facilities, even be paid around the same level.
The only real difference between the two is that one is likely to understand they are being oppressed whilst the other one has grown up believing that what is happening is normal, "fair" even.
What people dont understand is that there is a difference between racism and institutional racism.
Until they realise the difference they'll never understand the opposite viewpoint.
Are their racists in the UK? Yes
Are ethnic minorities more likely to be racially abused than the white majority? Yes
Is the UK institutionally racist that stops minorities from progressing in life whilst giving white people a leg up? NO
Funny how people never point to Asian children in this country who often flourish despite being a minority themselves - the reason why is two Things - 1. Often they come from financially secure backgrounds and 2. Their parents put alot of value in education.
White and black working class kids are often deprived of both its just you only ever hear how black working class are discriminated and have it tough - race has nothing to do with it and I say that as someone who came from a working class background in the North - I could relate a lot more to some working class black kid from a London estates upbringing than I could a upper middle class white lad from some leafy suburb.
