If you disagree with this statement (an item from the 'Modern Sexism' scale), a social scientist somewhere will code you as sexist. 
...and then you'll end up in an article in the NYT or the Washington Post's 'Monkey Cage' calling attention to the sexism of conservative voters
Does that sound right @PsychRabble ?
@PsychRabble For further reading on this problem in the social sciences, I recommend reading this chapter of @PsychRabble et al.'s book taylorfrancis.com/books/e/978131…
@PsychRabble But let's say, for arguments sake, it was a demonstrable fact that employers often discriminate against women. The item would still be bad insofar as it assumes that the average person is aware of this fact. If the data below is any indication, such an assumption is dubious
@PsychRabble (i.e. most conservatives don't read Vox)
