Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is the condition of having a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) of no known cause (idiopathic). As most causes appear to be related to antibodies against platelets, it is also known as immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
The Definition of Sexism. Sexism is a broad term that describes a number of occurrences, actions, attitudes and beliefs. The purist form of sexism is an attitude that women are inferior to men. The idea comes from a variety of sources such as skewed religious beliefs, parental conditioning, peer pressure, distorted workforce politics and more.
Misogyny may be distinguished from the closely related word sexism, which signifies discrimination based on sex (although it most frequently refers to discrimination against women) and also carries the meaning âbehavior, conditions, or attitudes that foster stereotypes of social roles based on sex.â.
