SEXISM
“Sexism”
is an explicit or implicit belief or practice that qualitatively distinguishes
or values one sex over the other. This doesn’t mean that there are no
differences between the sexes. Nor does it mean that these differences are
insignificant. They are very significant! It means that the differences are
valuable, and when all the differences are added up on each side of the male
and female ledger, the quality-sum and value-sum at the bottom of the ledger is
the same for male and female.
