110. Understanding Sexism

from Unleashing Sister Saints Hosted by Dr. Susan R. Madsen, Global Expert in Women's Leadership

In this podcast episode, I come back to the topic of sexism. I used to avoid using the word “sexism” because it made people uncomfortable, including me, a women’s leadership scholar. But as I began digging deeper into the research, my perspective changed. Now I use the word often because I realized that most people don’t understand the term and how it plays out in families, communities, and workplaces — particularly the more subtle form, called “benevolent sexism.” Now that I understand it, I see it all around me. I talk about what sexism is in this episode, as knowledge is power!
