SexismFreddie Woo tells us: Despite being a well rounded modern man I think women are best off getting married and having a few kids else they'll be absolutely miserable come middle age.
What views do you have that are probably sexist that you believe are true?

You would have done... if you'd ever worked in Saudi Arabia. These people have a somewhat unrealistic idea of how long it takes to gather information, engineer a solution, get a replacement part to site and get it all installed. They believe that asking for progress every few seconds will help you speed things along. If they don't like the answer, they believe that asking the same question over and over will magically change the answer.
All this along with my favourite, "You have to do it! I've already told my boss you will!"
*sigh*

I.T. is like this too"How long will it take?"
"I don't know."
"Well roughly?"
"I DON'T KNOW."
"Say, less than two weeks?"
"I STILL DON'T FUCKING KNOW!"
"I already said they could have it in a week."
"You're going to look a bit of a twat then, aren't you?"

They're pre-neantertaal so they don't count.Luckily the emirates, as a whole, are suffering right now -- so hopefully the stone-age morons will just die out slowly.
