Sexism and Discrimination
Sexism and discrimination had many researches and studies on it. One research specifically concentrated on masculinity, sexism, and homophobia. The results showed higher in male-dominated fields of study. Switzerland in recent years has noticed an increased entrance in female LGB students in traditionally male-dominated fields of study. The amount of women entering the STEM fields has increased from 16.5 to 31.6% throughout 1990 and 2016. Even though there was a significant increase in percentage, female and LGB students are still underrepresented. In addition, women are more likely to perceive sexism than men. Both men and women can encounter sexism, but it is mainly prejudice towards women. People who encounter sexism may put up barriers. The barriers can include everyday activities at home, at work, in sports, and also in social situations. Sexism can have a big impact on mental health. People who experience sexism second guess their perceptions, attitudes, and beliefs. Video games today are very popular. Sexism, toxic behavior, and harassment occur daily in gaming, and there is a critical need in preventing cyberbullying. Preventing cyberbullying can help improve help gender diversity and equality to extend in online gaming. Sexism and gender discrimination are to be likely contribute to women having lower wadges and slower progression in professional advancement. Fifty percent of social change interventions have no positive outcome in attaining beneficial results.
