Sexism makes sisters feel passive, guilty, ashamed.
Not encouraged to let their out their anger at others, they take out their frustrations on themselves. But let's not just look at the oppression women experience because of sexism. I recall seeing a brother crying and grieving over the death of his girlfriend and receiving not a hand reaching out to him to let him know people were with him. Sexism in the Japanese community means that the mother is responsible for raising the children-while the father takes a distant and nonaffectionate role. This results in many Asian young people growing up feeling unloved or confused because Father rarely talked or played with them.
