The New Testament says that women should be subservient to their husbands. Some modern Christian denominations rely on this to explain their refusal, or at least reluctance, to allow women to take leadership roles in the Church. However, other denominations are more strongly opposed to any form of sexism or gender-based discrimination.

Another Answer:
With a full understanding of what Christianity teaches, the answer is emphatically no, it does not. It does teach dual roles in the government structure of the family - the central body of said government. God foresaw that there was no way either sex could do all the tasks necessary to survive by themselves. He also knew that raising a family - His future sons and daughters - would never be done properly outside of marriage. So an order was arranged just like the order in His Kingdom with the Father on top and the Word/Son next in order. Yet there is no arguing or vying for power. It is total unity and this is our earthly lesson we each have to learn.
The ancient world was an agrarian society and not a competitive, greedy/lusty, modern society. Survival depended upon teamwork. If early America, for example, did not work it out this way, no settlers would have survived in the uncharted frontier lands.
Sexism is a modern term to try to explain the discrimination of one sex over another. It is man's vain attempt to make everyone and everything equal. It is not the design of God and will therefore, fail as all other attempts of man have. Men and women are unique in that they each are fully capable of performing their roles completely in this world in order for the man and woman to become 'one' as the God family is One. In the world to come, sex will not be an issue and we each will become children of God.
