Studies of attitudes toward sexist language have consistently revealed a gender gap, with women considerably more supportive of inclusive language than men.

Williams, Lee Burdette – About Campus, 2006
For years, educators had complained that college students were apathetic, that their turnout at the polls was pitifully low, that they didn't seem to care about national politics. Despite MTV's Rock the Vote campaign in the 2000 election, students didn't show up to vote in any numbers that gave everybody the reason to be hopeful about the nation's…

de Wet, Corene – South African Journal of Education, 2007
School violence is a subject of great public and media interest that has stimulated a comprehensive body of research. Academic consideration of the subject began in the USA and Scandinavia in the mid-1960s and early 1970s but little evidence could be found of publications on the subject in the small landlocked Kingdom of Lesotho. To address this…

It was an honor for Faustine Jones-Wilson to be the first female editor of "The Journal of Negro Education", a highly respected publication.

Discrimination often silences and marginalizes those who do not conform to the dominant gender and (hetero)sexual discourses that operate in broader society.
