Best Answer

If a girl is asked to do a math problem on the bord, a guy might say something like, "we'll she can't do it because she's just a girl". Or, like in the movie Mean Girls 2, if a girl walks into a carpentry class, an example of sexism would be if a guy in there said, "Home Economics is down the hall." Those are both examples of sexism.

Another example, from only weeks ago in the news:

A dress code that bars girls from wearing certain clothing, because it may be "a distraction to learning" for the male students. Yes; this happened recently, look up Tottenville High School is Staten Island. Even though there was no air conditioning, girls had to sweat because administrators feared boys would have trouble focusing on their lessons. Is this really 2014?!
