Sexism on Google

Hello everybody, how are you ? Today we come to talk to you about differences between men and women. This morning, we were doing researches on Google about criterias of beauty, and, just to see what we would find, we wrote "men" and "women" on the toolbar. And then we were strickened by the difference of the results that appeared.

When we search "men" on the Internet, we find definitions of the word, and shopping sites. But for women, the first results we get are dating sites for men.





Then, when we search for images, it is worse. When we search for images of "men", we find simple pictures of actors and famous men. But when we search for images of "women", we get to see many images of naked women or women wearing underwear.
