Are You Sexist? Quiz
Alright, you sexist pigs, time to take a test to show the forum how sexist and misogynistic you are.
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/are-you-sexist-take-this-quiz/
In all seriousness, I think it's dumb. An article on a website that the writer thinks will actually determine how sexist you are.... brilliant. Anyway, I still think it's fun to take the test to see how quick the media can be to call you sexist. Here are my results:
I apologise to every woman in the world for being a sexist, misogynistic male.

This was my result, im speechless I dont understand how this correlates with my answers
Edit: I didn't read the results properly facepalm I got 1.17 in hostile and 1.5 in benevolent
The comments on the quiz page are bang on the money that quiz is shit
...
I don't think it's supposed to line up with your answers, unless of course you give the obvious answers that feminists would want to hear. If you step anywhere outside the lines of "Women are amazing, we should love and accept all of them no matter what." You're going to be called sexist.
Of course, I'm always up for that sort of thing. There's nothing I do better than oppressing the opposite gender.
Same. But remember, this is a secret.
You can't tell anyone.
The questions were pretty bad one was like every man should have a woman he adores, well of course everyone should have someone in their life that they adore whether they are man woman or some type of trigger-kin
I got an 0.83.
Ayy.
Quiz was likely made by a sexist. Very first question in itself was Sexist. Basically asking you are girls better than boys. It is rigged to make men who take it think they're sexist when in fact the person who came up with the questions is sexist.
And if you say no, you're obviously a sexist.
I find it quite hilarious.
I could not even get past the first question without laughing my ass off. So thanks for the early morning entertainment @Brodester08.
My pleasure, mate.
I wouldn't be surprised if the "Averages" are made up entirely as well.
Well, the entire scale is made up. So definitely.
What's most annoying is that there is no middle ground answer, it's "disagree slightly" or "agree slightly", where is the neither or both options?
It's also generalises incredibly, 'women' this and 'men' that, everyone's different and I definitely think some women control their men, but many also don't. This quiz is just confusing as shit.
Anyway, I got 1.67 for hostile and 3.67 for benevolent.
I agree with the benevolent one though, I think every man feels a need to protect and cherish women, isn't that normal? And why wouldn't women want that? It also goes vice-versa. The quiz is about sexism but it only focuses on women, fucking stupid.
These test results are for those people that share "like/share/comment if you believe in God, Ignore for Satan" posts
Surprised this quiz wasn't on buzzfeed. I couldn't even get halfway.
I don't want to answer these questions x.x they feel like I'm saying one is better than the other, where's the middle ground? Also, people can be sexist towards males as well.
I think that women don't deserve any special treatment (just like a man), but at the same time I have no idea why'd they refuse anyone that wants to keep them safe. That "I'm a strong independent woman who doesn't need your protection" attitude is pretty stupid.
1 on hostile and 0.5 on benevolent.
Fucking hilarious questions.
The questions are so fucking bad, they make me laugh my arse off. Like seriously, what the hell are those questions?
Anyways, I got 1.67 on Hostile Sexism and 2.5 on Benevolent Sexism.
You sexist bastard!
Well that was a stupid quiz, the way it was worded and the boxes were like it's forcing you to pick stupid answers so it gives you a stupid sexist rating
HEY! I haven't seen your results on the quiz, though!
What if you're a bigger sexist than me? >.> <.<
enter link description here
Hey, at least I finally found a poll where I disagreed or agreed strongly once or twice.
'Hostile Sexism': 4.17
'Benevolent Sexism': 1.67
the way I see it, if you see distinction between the genders, it doesn't make you a sexist. Just like if you see and acknowledge skin color and different races, it doesn't make you a racist. Or if you are perhaps against a particular denomination, that does not make you anti religion. Or if maybe accept homosexuality, but don't celebrate it, it doesn't make you a homophobe.
Or if you are against anti-abortion, it doesn't make you against women's rights. Rather you simply are acknowledging that the child in question has the same right to live as anyone else.
You know this is supposed to be the age of Tolerance, and yet people are more intolerant now than they ever have been in human history. It seems like almost every time you turn around, somebody somewhere is upset about something. And it oftentimes turns out to be something that is really not worth getting upset about.
after 2 crashes i finally did it 0.5 on hostile and 2 on benevolent does this mean im a good guy or a bad guy the results are confusing there was a lot of questionas that could mean a number of things and no middle ground answer
It felt like I have to be sexist to take this quiz. No middle ground. It's one or the other. It also felt like the questions were asked by a sexist.
Exactly.
Hostile sexism : 1.5
Benevolent sexism : 0.67
This quiz was generalizing, ''women this'' ''men that'' so it was sexist in itself... and I found myself disagreeing with almost all of the questions. I don't know ? Maybe try realising that every person is different and add a ''neutral'' answer. I mean I am sure some women exagerrate their problems at work, people in general are able to do so, just like we should all cherish one another regardless of our gender...
As this one was clearly around sexism against women, I am waiting for the sexism against men version... It exist, and it'd be nice to akwnoledge it without being biased in the questions themself.
I like it how the quiz defines sexism as something against women only.....
Yeah, looks like some tumblr feminism for me.
shakes head
I'm all for equal playing fields, but that means it will be really equal. So I guess in several ways women would be in a worse position. (Of course, in several ways the would be in a better one. But just try to get the kids as male after a divorce. Unless your wife is alcohlic/seriously mentally ill/drug addict, you don'T even have a chance, and even then, you might just lose becuse "women know better how to raise kids". Luckily this did not happen with me, but I really disapprove of this)
Hostile sexism: 2.67
Are you serious? They had questions like how men should sacrifice for the women in their lives and other questions like that, which perpetual sexual stereotypes about both men and women, so called 'male disposibility' while also feeding into the notion that women are week.
No, it deals with both levels of sexism. Maybe the high score comes from dismissing anything that deals with gender inequality as 'tumblr feminism.'
Funny because I was just talking with my coworkers about feminism today at lunch. It makes me the life of the party...
Hostile Sexism:
0.5
Benevolent Sexism
1.83
To pre-empt the discussion, I really think a lot of these anti-feminists who cling to 'sexual dimorphism' as explaining everything, are entirely hypocritical - whenever it is to the disadvantage to women (IE income) it's biology, whenever it's disadvantageous to men, it's the evil feminazis (IE educational attainment).
I got
Hostile Sexism: 2
Benevolent Sexism: 0
That quiz was pretty shit.
Men are stronger and have more people in high IQ groups. They are faster, perform better on 3 dimensional augmentation tasks, and earn more money. Bruh.
I know you're half trollling, but out of curiousity, is this a 'separate but equal' errr, excuse me, I mean 'different but equal,' where are there any things you think women are biologically superior at, or do you just think men are the master sex? And by better at, I'm not referring to baby- or sandwich-making.
Hostile sexism 0.5 Benevolent 1.83
Sure. Women are more compassionate, more nurturing, less aggressive (stemming from less competitive, so pros and cons), more empathetic, and a plethora of other mores and lesses.
Plus, their sandwich making skills are on point.
EDIT: And since we mentioned men comprising the majority of high IQ groups it should also be said that women comprise the minority of low IQ groups.
I swear I thought this was Buzzfeed for a second.
Hostile Sexism: 2.83
Benevolent Sexism: 2.33
I can say with confidence that this Quiz is fucking stupid just like buzzfeed. So biased.
Typical internet "test" is something like. Are you gay or not with question "Do you lick rocks?"
