Describe sexism and its effects on women

What will be an ideal response?


Sexism is an ideology that justifies prejudice or discrimination based on gender. Its results include channeling women into statuses that are considered appropriate and excluding them from statuses reserved for men. Sexism tends to treat women as objects for adornment or sex rather than as full persons. Another result is the acceptance of violence against women.
