Sexism in Meridian by Alice Walker and So Far from God by Ana Castillo
Öz
The concept of sexism, known as prejudice and discrimination in society, is an ideology that argues that one person is superior
to another in terms of gender. This ideology, which causes women-man conflicts, is hateful. Because of this view that guides
societies with prejudices similar to racism by judging by sex, some people or individuals are exposed to psychological or
physical negative behaviors because they are women or men. When a person is defined as "bad, incomplete or inadequate", this
situation is accepted as "Sexism". This idea, which is a result of cultural pressures, begins in the family. With the sexist
generalizations and definitions used to insult the other side, pressures are made on the sexual identity in the society. Gender
discrimination is seen in every society, however, it negatively affects education level and indirectly the level of development of
countries. The prejudice of sexism, which is more common in backward, oppressed and excluded societies, has become a
learned and stereotyped tradition applied both externally and within society itself. Taken from a deeper perspective, it is seen
that these societies are experiencing the pressures they see from the outside. Societies living under the psychology of restricting
and differentiating others' lives with a 'racist' perspective also reflect discriminatory perspectives on family traditions.
Discriminatory views covered by the ideology of racism constitute the cause or causes of the "Sexism" ideology. In this study,
the prejudice of "Sexism" in Alice Walker's Meridian and Ana Castillo's Far From God will be examined within the framework of
psychological views. These novels will be analyzed by comparing the concepts of racism and sexism in the light of quotations.
