Sexism would involve the singling out of one gender at the expense of the other. Sexism really has no place in modern times. We can make of ourselves what we wish within certain confines.

Sexism is where blanket statements are made, e.g all women should be in the kitchen. Such nonsense should be stamped out where found.

See, that's what I thought also. But it seems that there are people - not only on JapanForum - but people in real life who actually live by this philosophy. This is a way of life for a lot of people. To us, it's a sexist lifestyle. To others, it's just the way things are. It's kind of mind boggling to me.

OMG! Mercedesjin, you are not only insecure about your race but now I see you have the same mentality about your sex.

You are very smart Dirtyroboto. I've addressed this on her other threads and ended up being accused of being sexist and racist.
Mercedesjin, why don't you stick to Japanese discussions? And no, don't start a Japanese sexism thread.

Mercedesjin, you are right but remember, we can change the way things are. Look at how things have been changed, e.g Communism fell here in Poland, women got the right to vote in the face of mass chauvinism and a black man got to be President of the USA.

I have heard fewer and fewer men say that a woman's place is in the home. Women have become more upwardly mobile and career-oriented. The man is to help in most ways that he can. If men say it, they often say it jokingly in amongst other men but not to their significant other.

(me being sexist)

A woman is just a man without a c0ck!
