| Video Discription | Sexist Language Sexist language is language which excludes one sex or the other, or which suggests that one sex is superior to the other. For example, traditionally, he, him and his were used to refer to both sexes, male and female, but nowadays many people feel that this makes she, her and hers seem less important or inferior. It is best to avoid sexist language in order not to offend people. Suffixes -man, -master -woman and -ess Many people feel that traditional uses of the suffixes -man, -master, -woman and -ess are sexist and outdated, so alternative, neutral forms are often used (m = male; f = female). traditional form vs neutral alternative fireman (m): fire-fighter policeman (m) policewoman (f): police officer headmaster (m) headmistress (f): headteacher or head waiter (m) waitress (f): server (American English) Nouns, adjectives and verbs with man: Some nouns, adjectives and verbs which include man are considered sexist nowadays. We can often use neutral alternatives: traditional form vs neutral alternatives manpower (noun): workers, workforce, staff, personnel, human resources Example: The industry has suffered from a lack of manpower. man (verb): be at Example: Somebody will have to man the entrance to take the tickets as people come in. manmade (adjective): artificial rather than natural Example: Manmade fibres are never as nice to wear as natural ones. |
