    No, it just means they are actually making an effort now...

      There seems to be very little in the way of sexism on the forum, form what I can see.
      There is alot more in the way of people not understanding the difference between statistically oriented predjudice, or a percieved lack of entitled reverence, and sexism.

      That aside, 'casual sexism', generally speaking, isn't a real pnenomenon. It's just people using their already historically privelaged gender to wring out even more unwarrented reverence by using the phrase 'casual sexism', rather than actual sexism, as a vector which can't be shot down with evidence & logic because it's a made-up idea with no basis in reality. A bit like 'extreme' <capitalism/anything else you need to slate under certain, undefined conditions whenever convenient>

            Would smart casual sexism be Alan Partridge ?
            Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

            No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

                You really do post some utter tripe.
