Abstract

This paper is an attempt to explore the status of sexism in textbooks. A qualitative inquiry is made into (a) sex-linked job possibilities, (b) sex-based activity types, (c) stereotyped sex roles (d) firstness and (e) masculine generic conception. Sexist language in English is evident in the use of third person pronouns and terms that identify occupation. It is suggested that sexism seems to mirror the discrimination to the disadvantage of women in society. Keywords: sexist language, English textbooks
