The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was no consensus. Mailer Diablo 07:46, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Gender apartheid

Non-notable term and a POV-fork of sexism. It is interesting to observe that contrary to HOTR's view that "sexual apartheid" refers to LGBT issues, while "gender apartheid" refers to discrimination of women, the sources do not support it. For example, this Washington Post article refers to discrimination of women in Saudi Arabia as "sexual apartheid". In a nutshell, we have no reliable sources discussing the term and confirming its notability. Pecher 14:19, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Did you seriously attempt to compare the plight of women in the two countries across two different time periods? That's absurd. There's a sea of socio-policitical and even religious and economic differences in between the two. They're not comparable. --Strothra 19:32, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Hmm, sexism sucks as an article, maybe redirect it somewhere better, or stick a flag on it to get it cleaned up. I was expecting a study of the oppression of women throughout human history. --Coroebus 16:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
