Abstract

This study was an attempt to explore the status of SEXISM in current English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks that are locally designed to cater for and respond to the English language needs of Iranian students at secondary schools. To this end, two types of analysis were performed to examine the manifestation(s) of sexist attitudes and values in two textbooks Right Path to English 1 & H. First, a systematic quantitative CONTENT ANALYSIS was carried out with reference to (a) sex visibility in both texts and illustrations and (b) female/male topic presentation in dialogs and reading passages. Secondly, a qualitative inquiry was made into (a) sex-linked job possibilities, (b) sexbased activity types, (c) stereotyped sex roles (d) firstness and (e) masculine generic conception. Results revealed that Right Path to English I & II can be considered sexist textbooks that present students, in their early exposure to the English language, with an unfair and inexcusable picture of women. It is suggested that this SEXISM, though embarrassing and undesirable, seems to mirror the unfair sex discrimination to the disadvantage of women in society.
