A incident related to sexist Today I had the first class of my 7 semester in my university. It was basically a group work class in which the teacher organize us into small group to have more active discussions. My group had 6 people including me, and one of them is female , the rest is boys. When we started to introduce each other, the teacher has come upon us and then asked the girl wether she is ok with our group or not. I was not sure why the teacher has asked her such question. Adding to that, she asked her whether she feels comfortable with being surrounded by all boys. I was very confused why the teacher needed to care about her just because she was the only girl in our group. Is there anything wrong when girls are minority in such a small community? Does gender have to be a determination factor to divide people into groups? I haven't ever faced any problem when I was a only boy out of all the group members before. I didn't even pay attention to gender ratio.
