Sexism is unfair treatment or discrimination against people based on their sex or gender. It often stems from harmful gender stereotypes that see women as inferior. Throughout history, women have faced discrimination and been seen as witches or less capable. While sexism exists in many societies, the document notes it can be particularly problematic in Guatemala where women face wage gaps and judgment based on their appearance or culture. Several contributors reflect that sexism damages society by limiting women's opportunities and that change needs to start at home by teaching children respect regardless of gender.

In Guatemala there is education “Non-Sexist”
and “Non-Racist”.
This has started in schools because since kids
this education has to be taught.
In schools boy and girls calle each other
“dumb”, “ugly” this should change because in
future this could affect Guatemala.
It sometimes starts with adults outside the
school.

This happens when girls come from
departmens of Guatemala and the others judge
them just because of their clothing, language
and culture which is not right.
This sometimes affects the Wage Gap that
women employees have. They win less than
male employees for just being female.

My point of view is that sexism is not in
Guatemala that strong. It happens sometimes
but in other places is worse. Like in India
women are very limited and have a lot of
children.

It has damaged the society, it happens more in
the woman because it is discriminated in work
and house. It all starts in the house and the
change starts in us. We have to teach our
children to respect and that a woman can do
what a man can do. You can not change society
in minutes. So thats why you start in the home.

In society is not good that women are
discriminated because they can do a lot of
things and can do things certain men can’t do
like organizing and more etc etc.

Society has made us like this, now is less than
before. Women have a less important role in
society than men. But women are capable to
develop in every aspect that there is.

Sexism is bad because if our society wants to
progress we have to notice that discriminating
someone just for their gender is bad. Everyone
knows how to progress and women are capable
of great things in life.
