I say it mostly because, in my head, her father would have held sexist views as well ( e.g. him wanting Mat to be the next leader and not Bella, although there are other reasons why he wanted this/he had other plans for her that he felt were more...fitting lol. Not benevolent or misogynistic, cus he loved his kids in his own way, but still). So if she even smells that shit, she might lash out a bit.

I don't think she will experience that. Asterion isn't someone that is like "women can't be leaders!" And he wouldn't disrespect her for being a woman in power. He would be disrespectful if she showed no respect or care for him. At the end of the day, give or take, his basic foundations go off from respect. However, that being said, he definitely as a sprinkle of sexism in him. 

Like he will be nicer to Bella or give her more leeway compared to someone like Zarek or Glyde or whoever.
