I've experienced things from women in the workplace that would have resulted in instant termination had she been a man. But men have a higher threshold for not complaining about shit that doesn't matter.
So have I - I've had a morbidly obese Nurse Unit Manager with the hots for me come in and lean all over me - heavy and annoying. My female tech lead volunteered to provide evidence for a sexual harassment complaint if I wanted to. (I'm male, the NUM was female)
I didn't want to. The NUM came in maybe three times a year, for only a couple of minutes. It was just a passing discomfort, but the important thing is this: I never lost tangible power. I didn't work in an environment where it was commonplace. I never felt like I couldn't escape or verbally correct or even physically overpower her if things went too far. There was never a culture of undermining my power that it contributed to. I wasn't seen as more of a 'junior' because of it; it didn't diminish my status.
Separate to that, I wouldn't say men have a higher threshold for not complaining about shit that doesn't matter. In some senses they do, and in others they don't - the recent PyCon event showed vast amounts of men in tech providing plenty of vapid, shrill complaints over stuff that really didn't require that level of passion.
