Sexism is a mental ailment present in some recruited companions. At low Sanity, afflicted characters will trigger various negative events:
- When resting in a village, a player may be asked which sex is superior. The afflicted companion will gain Loyalty if the answer is their gender, or lose it if your answer is the opposite.
- When resting in the open, a sexist may offend and argue with a companion of the opposite sex, reducing loyalty in one or both of them.
Like most mental ailments, it can be cured with a Green Mushroom, cleansing at a Shaman Hut, or with the random blessing of Pure Mind from a temple.
