In the present article, we have studied the current Persian language from a sociolinguistic point of view, as a sexist language. The hypothesis of this study is that, although the current Persian language, like other sexist languages such as English, German, French. Etc. is not a sexist language at the syntactic level. However, its use in lexicon, morphology, and sometimes with regard to semantics and metaphor, shows it can be a sexist language. Therefore, in order to prove this hypothesis, various linguistic data have been gathered through recording Persian speakers conversations, reading newspapers, magazines and etc. After a regular categorization, we have analyzed the data; and finally the linguistic as well as social variables causing sexism in the current Persian language have been explored through an ordered questionnaire.
