- 1性別歧視者;當形容詞是「性別歧視的」。不要和 sexy(性感的)搞混。
A sexist is a person who believes one sex is weaker, less clever, or less important than the other, and who treats people because of that. Sexist is also an adjective: a sexist joke, a sexist rule, a sexist hiring test. It always shows — you are saying the person or the thing is wrong. It was formed from sex + -ist, after the word sexism. You will hear it in news, school, and everyday argument; it is ordinary modern English, not a specialist term. Though actually, people sometimes throw it as a quick insult in a fight, even when the other person has not really treated anyone because of sex. Do not mix it up with sexy, which means attractive.
組成From sex + -ist, after sexism. -ist makes a person who holds a belief, or an adjective for that kind of belief.

Unfairly discriminatory against one sex in favour of the other.
- What was all that about? Well, like all women, she's shoe-mad. 't's a bit sexist, isn't it? Do you know one woman who isn't obsessed with shoes? No, but I only know one woman. And she just left the room shouting "THE SHOES!"

sexistnoun/ˈsɛksɪst/
- 1
A person who discriminates on grounds of sex; someone who practises sexism.
- When you argue […] that since fewer women write good poetry this justifies their total exclusion, you are taking a position analogous to that of the racist—I might call you in this case a "sexist"—who says that since so few Negroes have held positions of importance relative to the majority race, their exclusion from history books is a matter of good judgement rather than discrimination. Both the racist and the sexist are acting as if all that has happened had never happened, and both of them are making decisions and coming to conclusions about someone's value by referring to factors which are in both cases irrelevant.
- I don't blame racists, sexists, lookists, or any other “ists” for what they personify and perpetuate. They are mere hostages of their egos.
