Sydney Asserts That If Individuals Could Suddenly Be Purged of Sexist

Question 46

Multiple Choice

Sydney asserts that if individuals could suddenly be purged of sexist ideas, attitudes, and behaviors, men and women would be equal. Is Sydney correct?


A) Yes. If individuals do not behave in sexist ways, sexism will no longer exist.
B) It would certainly help, but sexism has become embedded in the structure and ideology of social institutions, so eliminating sexist behavior is an important start but not the end of sexism.
C) No. Sexism is a biological imperative and will continually resurface even if people do not want it to.
D) Since sexist behavior and sexism are unrelated, it is unlikely that eliminating sexist behavior would have any impact on expressions of sexism.
