Join me in this episode as I share some of the research my team and I at the Utah Women & Leadership Project did in the state of Utah when we gathered sexist comments from nearly 1000 women. Robbyn Scribner, Allie Barnes, and I analyzed the specific comments focused on Latter-day Saint settings and published a piece on it last year in the Square Two Journal. It was titled “Sexist Comments in Latter-day Saint Settings.” Sexism takes many forms, from blatant and aggressive to unintentional and subtle. Gender-related societal attitudes, social norms, unconscious biases, and microaggressions all contribute to the sexist behaviors and attitudes that are partially responsible for much of the inequity women face every day in a variety of settings—including in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
