...would be unfair to attribute all, or even most, of Guns N' Roses' success to their unrelentingly sexist and uncompromisingly violent lyrics or to their forays into xenophobia, racism and sadomasochism. Rock 'n' roll has always been filled with sexist, violent bands, but very few of them sell 14 million copies the first time out of the chute.

...commission also found that racist, sexist and homophobic statements appeared regularly in the messages officers typed to one another on their patrol-car computer systems. "I would love to drive down Slauson ((a black ( area)) with a flame thrower . . . We would have a barbecue," said one. "U won't believe this," said another.

...pervasive, global problem for women who are trying to get into professional careers. I think the reason it is coming out is because of the critical numbers.
