Egalitarian

e·gal·i·tar·i·an (adjective)

Claire Cain Miller, “How to Raise a Feminist Son”

The word I would like to add to my glossary is “Egalitarian” it means relating to or believing in the principle that all people are equal and deserve equal rights and opportunities.  The sentences using the word egalitarian says “Men who were raised by employed moms are significantly more egalitarian in their gender attitudes,” said Kathleen McGinn, a professor at Harvard Business School.  What I thought this sentence was that men that are raised by their mom, they are less likely to act like a masculine.  Perhaps, they are raised to be more caring and have respect for women than other men would.
