Abstract:

The phenomenon of sexist language is closely related to the concept of gender that has been structured at the level of language correctionalism. Therefore, this sexist word or phrase is actually made by people who are influenced by views on both types of gender. Often in language sexism more gender-oriented or degrading. One language that is considered to contain a lot of vocabulary and expression of Sexist is English Language. This is because English Language is an International Language. English Language that is rich in vocabulary and many elements of language are absorbed. This research wil

Abstract:

In the present paper I discuss the forms of language sexism which appear in English and Greek placing emphasis on professional nominal forms. More specifically, the focus of the paper is on (a) speakers’ attitudes regarding the status of sexism in the society and its reflection on language and (b) the differences between languages with different forms of gender morphological marking, i.e. English and Greek, respectively. I will argue that sexism is a gradient notion, it is more evident in languages with gender discrimination and it seems to be a topic that needs to be incorporated on lan

Abstract This paper deals with the phenomena of linguistic sexism and non-sexist language reform (feminist language planning) in the Australian context. It surveys Australian work on linguistic sexism and discusses various aspects of non-sexist language reform in Australia. Particular emphasis is placed on problematic issues relating to feminist language planning, i.e. the selection and evaluation of non-sexist alternatives and the implementation mechanisms for this type of reform. Linguistic change resulting from the reform initiatives and its spread throughout the community is also described

Abstract:

The article deals with the concept of linguistic sexism in the cross-cultural context. It compares the generally accepted guidelines for avoiding linguistic sexism in English and Slovene, exemplified by two guides on non-sexist use of English. It is argued that in English non-sexist language strives for gender neutrality, whereas in Slovene it strives for gender specificity. The reasons for the differences between the perceptions of sexism in English and Slovene are examined by taking into account the linguistic expression of gender and the cultural and historical context in which both languag

Abstract:

The goal of sexism detection is to mitigate negative online content targeting certain gender groups of people. However, the limited availability of labeled sexism-related datasets makes it problematic to identify online sexism for low-resource languages. In this paper, we address the task of automatic sexism detection in social media for one low-resource language -- Chinese. Rather than collecting new sexism data or building cross-lingual transfer learning models, we develop a cross-lingual domain-aware semantic specialisation system in order to make the most of existing data.

Abstract: Sexism is a judgment made by society on how men and women are represented. This study investigates the use of sexism in languages called sexist languages and the reason why the characters uttered it in the movie Colette. Therefore, two theories are used in this study. The first theory is from Mills (2008) that divides sexist languages into overt and indirect sexism. Then, the second theory is by Weatherall (2002) who states that the usage of sexist languages is making women invisible, causing women to be defined narrowly, and making women get depreciated.

Abstract:

The language functions in the sociological context and creates different types of its` correlation with the main social institutions, connected with the actualization of the gender and sexism problem. These notions are reflected in the language, being actively studied in the sphere of gender linguistics, which is considered to be one of the main spheres in the system of humanitaristics. Gender linguistics has the status of a new linguistic branch, which brought a lot of underinvestigated problems. This research is dedicated to the studying of interpretation peculiarities of such terms as sexis

Abstract:

In this study, we present a new approach that combines multiple Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) architectures with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) framework designed for sexism detection in text at a granular level. Our method relies on the analysis and identification of the most important terms contributing to sexist content using Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) values. This approach involves defining a range of Sexism Scores based on both model predictions and explainability, moving beyond binary classification to provide a deeper understanding of the

Abstract:

This research aims to scrutinise whether sexism is confined solely to the Italian advertising domain or extends into the language employed by the general populace and the broader cultural fabric of society. In Italy, despite numerous efforts made over the past decades to eradicate sexism in advertising campaigns, marketers frequently resort to its various manifestations, deeming it a powerful tool for attracting potential consumers. The prevalent utilisation of the female image in a sexist manner, portraying women as objects of desire, remains commonplace. Surprisingly, even renowned influence

Abstract:

The way people use language determines and (or) reflects their experience in their social context; the use of everyday language becomes a lens through which people behave and see their world and at other time it is the social practices that influence certain choices of language used by community members. For that reason research on how languages affect women’s image in different speech communities is highly needed for the sake of saving women’s face. This brought to the attention the concept of language and gender in applied linguistics whose focus is on how language use and labelling is assoc

Abstract:

AbstractThe current study examined sexist humor and participants’ level of sexism and femininity ideology using two research approaches: (1) a quasi-experimental design in which participants were primed with sexist humor and (2) a correlational approach using content analysis to estimate exposure to sexist humor in media. It was hypothesized that exposure to sexist humor would influence viewer’s sexist views and femininity ideology. It was also hypothesized that the quasi-experimental design would yield confirmatory results of our initial hypothesis while the correlational design would not. Pa

Abstract:

Gender discrimination has existed in language for a long time, especially in proverbs, which often harbor underlying biases, reinforcing and perpetuating stereotypes and unequal power dynamics. By adopting a descriptive method, this article aims to study existing English proverbs containing sexism, summarize the characteristics of words containing sexism. It intends to improve people’s understanding of sexism and generate new insight on sexism in English proverbs.

Abstract:

The generic use of grammatically (or lexically) gender-marked nouns and pronouns (GM) to refer to women and men in Indo-European languages has been criticised as gender-asymmetric since the 1970s. Two main strategies for eliminating asymmetry have been suggested: visibility by feminisation and de-gendering by neutralisation. Feminisation strategies seek to contribute to women’s visibility in discourse by explicitly and symmetrically referring to women and men, thus continuing to highlight gender boundaries. In contrast, neutralisation strategies downplay gender boundaries by promoting the use

Abstract:

From 1960s onwards sexist language intended to denigrate, objectify and trivialize women has been seriously exposed internationally and huge efforts were made to replace it with gender-neutral language. However, to date, sexism has not been fully suppressed and it is especially conspicuous in relation to women who assume active roles in public life. This study has both qualitative and quantitative design and looks into the presence of overt and implicit sexism (as categorized by Mills, 2008) in journalistic discourse and the role of sexist language in molding the image of modern day women poli
