Sex prejudice

Short/Brief Note

Solution

Sex prejudice means having unfair and negative attitudes toward someone just because of their gender. It is also called gender prejudice.

For example, believing that men are naturally better leaders or that women should only do household work are forms of sex prejudice. It often leads to discrimination, such as paying women less for the same work or denying them education and job opportunities.

Sex prejudice is harmful because it limits people’s rights, choices, and potential. It creates inequality between men and women and stops society from progressing fairly.
