Sexist language of the characters in the movie colette / Ursea Mayoriska

Abstrak
Sexism is a judgment made by society on how men and women are represented. This study investigates the use of sexism in languages called sexist languages and the reason why the characters uttered it in the movie Colette. Therefore two theories are used in this study. The first theory is from Mills (2008) that divides sexist languages into overt and indirect sexism. Then the second theory is by Weatherall (2002) who states that the use of sexist languages is to make women invisible causing them to be defined narrowly and making them get depreciated. By using a qualitative descriptive approach this study explores sexist languages from the characters rsquo utterances. The research reveals that the movie Colette has six types of overt sexism including naming dictionaries generic nouns insult terms for women semantic derogation and sexism in name and title. Also four kinds of indirect sexism of humor presupposition metaphor and collocation are found. Both male and female characters use sexist language to show superiority as a result of making women invisible to indicate one rsquo s concern about their status because of society that defines women narrowly and to point out one rsquo s position as women always get depreciated by society rsquo s prejudice.
