Sexism can be generalized as a subtype of essential and can be partitioned as consisting of sexism against women, against men, against intersex (hermaphroditic and pseudohermaphroditism) and transsexuals (male and female). Each type of sexism has its own history and form of intolerance.
Sexist beliefs as a kind of essentialism, they argue that individuals can be understood or judged simply based on the characteristics of the group they belong: in this case, your group sex, male or female. This assumes that all individuals' fit 'in the category of "male" or "female" and takes no account of people born with intersex sexual characteristics of both groups. It also assumes homogeneous characteristics for all the men in the group 'men' and all women of the 'feminine', without regard to the enormous differences that may exist within them. There are also men XX and women XY that are genetically one sex but have developed sexual characteristics of the other in the fetal stage.
Certain forms of sexual discrimination are illegal in many countries, but almost all have laws that grant rights, privileges and special responsibilities to one sex.
