I must admit I have absolutely no idea why sexism (or racism for that matter) even exists, maybe it's human conditioning. From a personal perspective I can't think of any reason why I would think of a female musician as being any different from me, it's certainly not quality of musicianship, we all work at differing levels of ability.
I think that it's human conditioning passed down the generations to people who just don't think too hard about their attitudes and ideals, because surely if they did think about it, they would have a hard time reconciling their actions.

Personally I just think it's a lack of intelligence actually.
I mean, we're all products of the environment we were brought up in. Jesus, my dad was rabidly racist. I'm not (but I was as a kid). I grew out of it when my brain developed.
My friend remains casually racist to this day. He's a bit thick.
I'm convinced it's as simple as that. Whenever you see groups of EDL for example, they don't exactly look, sound, or act like the pool balls are all in the triangle.
