Compare and contrast hostile sexism and benevolent sexism and give examples of each.
What will be an ideal response?
Hostile sexism refers to negative, hostile attitudes toward women and adversarial beliefs about gender relations in which women are thought to spend most of their time trying to control men, whether through sexuality or feminism. Benevolent sexism, in contrast, consists of beliefs about women who seem to the perpetrator to be kind or benevolent--in which women are honored and put on the proverbial pedestal.
