If a woman goes for a job and is refused but the position is given to a man, apparently its sexist. If the woman gets the job and the man doesn't, is it still sexist? Nothing to do with the person, its just whether they are a man or not? I think not.

I don't think there is equality in every country either, you'd be a fool to believe that, but there is in the UK and most European countries.
She went on and on about it. I think she was more or less sure she'd have never had got such a good job in Spain because she was a woman.

I think there is still a lot of prejudice in this country. It's much better than 20 years ago but I think that kind of thing is deep within people and will never come out.
