Trump, Sexism and Power

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

Is it becoming easier to challenge overt sexism in the corridors of power? Two big stories in the US and France are raising the issue. The New York Times’ article on Donald Trump’s attitude to women is the paper's most read political article this year. The Times is now defending its journalism after Trump responded directly to it. And politics and sexism has been a huge story in France in the past few weeks after one prominent MP resigned over sexual harrassment allegations and another made a public apology. Will these stories make it easier to speak out about sexual harrassment in the workplace? Image: Republican U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump Credit: Reuters/Lucas Jackson
