	Sexism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sexism is commonly considered to be discrimination and/or hatred against people based on their sex rather than their individual merits, but can also refer to any and all systemic differentiations based on the sex of the individuals.
		Sexism can be partitioned as consisting of sexism against the female sex, sexism against the male sex, sexism against the intersex (hermaphrodite and pseudohermaphrodite), and sexism against the transsex (transmale and transfemale).
		Another source of sexism is the "old patriarchy" and "old matriarchy", which has historically restricted and limited the role of males in other parts of society and has looked down upon male homemakers.

	Reverse discrimination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Reverse discrimination is a term used to describe perceived discriminatory policies or acts that benefit a historically sociopolitically nondominant group (typically women and minorities), at the expense of a historically sociopolitically dominant group (typically men and majority races).
		Critics of reverse discrimination, typically in the politically and socially dominant groups, believe proponents take a situational stand where a principled stand is more appropriate, arguing that the practice replaces one form of discrimination with another.
		For those who view the Asian fetish to be a form of reverse discrimination, the Asian fetish represents a minority population applying a situational stance on interracial unions rather than a stance based on principles.

	Affirmative action - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When members of targeted groups are actively sought or preferred, the reason given is usually that this is necessary to compensate for advantages that groups such as males or those of European descent have derived from racism (including institutional racism and unconscious racism), sexism (similarly), and results of historical circumstances.
		Though affirmative action in the United States is primarily associated with race and gender, the American civil rights movement originally gave as its purpose the correction of a history of oppression against all working-class and low-income people; women have figured as prominently as ethnic minorities among its beneficiaries.
		This approach of equal treatment is sometimes described as being "race-blind", in hopes that it is effective against discrimination without engaging in reverse discrimination.

	Feminism, Affirmative Action, and Other Bunk
		Men tread on dangerous ground, as chivalry is now a double-edged sword: if a man holds a door open for a woman he is insulting her since she is capable of getting the door herself, but if he neglects to, he is a rude misogynist.
		She preaches the necessity of difference and her wish that a bridge could be erected between them, and yet defines hatred as the "fury of those who do not share our goals" (Lorde, 129) whereas her own complaints are termed anger.
		We should be able to create change without putting down those different from us or reversing the direction of discrimination; to do so would be to sink to the low level of the oppressors and exemplify exactly what we are intending to oppose.

		This issue of reverse sexism is often ignored in today’s society and these groups are often deemed as anti-feminist and as sexist pigs.

		Two of these disputes erupted over scholarship evaluations, including the plight of Anthony Daley, the former assistant professor of government denied tenure in 1993 and again in 1994 for because he did not meet the standards of scholarship required by the department.

	Official Shrub.com Blog » Blog Archive » The Sexism of Transphobia
		Sexism - and we’re talking about the personal kind because, as a man, you have not and will not experience the institutionalized kind - is discrimination based on gender.
		Unless you’re trying to make a (rather silly) case that homosexuality or heterosexuality are sexism because they discriminate against one gender in terms of having sex, you are using the wrong word.
		The word for forcing sex on someone against their will is “rape.” By misusing the word “sexism,” and indeed claiming something akin to “reverse sexism” - although in this case it’s more “sexism” = “reverse transphobia” - you are using your male privilege to cheapen a very real, and very harmful phenomenon.
