Definition
A 'chauvinist' is someone who believes that their own group or gender is better than others. Often, it refers to someone who thinks men are superior to women, but it can apply to any group identity, like nationality or ethnicity. Imagine someone who constantly puts down other groups and brags about their own superiority 😒. It's more than just pride; it's a belief in inherent dominance. Unlike someone who simply appreciates their own culture, a chauvinist actively disparages others. They create unfair hierarchies.
