You are all sexist (and racist)

Racism may be applied akin to sexism when talking about bias. The black nurse in the ER episode replied to the bigoted EMT: "You just don't get it....it's ALWAYS about race."
To some, it will always be about sexism. Maybe arguably, rightfully so.
It will also always be about race, religion, orientation, social status, occupation, where you stand on some issue, and the kind of car you drive.
You are all sexist, because you stereotype! You know you do!
Dale,
a male nurse

I signed my name "male nurse" to catch the act of stereotyping.
We must understand our own subjective influences in analyzing anything (i.e. "all chiro is of Satan" or "all men are Pigs") Everyone has a right to his or her passions. For the most part, I think, "extremists" often provide a necessary balance in society. Besides, one day Chicken Little may be right.
