I recently downloaded the Google plug-in, "Jailbreak the Patriarchy". It's pretty entertaining to view a site through the lens it creates. The application flips gendered words to their opposite, exposing sexist word choices and style. It's amazing to see bias exposed in this way; try it on an article covering female politicians, for example, and prepare amused at the amount of time discussing Joe Biden's hair style.
