are tolkien books sexist?
no.
and even if you can point out sexist undertones, they are accidental and do not comprimise the quaitly of his work. the problem is, and reason why these things are pointed out, is that times change. standards change. thoughts and views change. it is unfair to judge something using the views of your time when the books were written in another.
but my ramblings are irelavent. the fact remains, no matter what is said in offence or defence, tolkien's works are not sexist.
