Oddly enough, Berrod's treatment of the sexes is almost directly related to the races of those sexes.
He treats Roegadyn and Highlander females as equals (his ego won't quite let him regard them as superiors, even if all evidence points out that they are). Midlander and Miqo'te females he tends to either coddle or brush off since he thinks of them as inferior (with a few exceptions!). They need to actively prove to him that they aren't just around for the sake of being annoying. Lalafell and Elezen females -- he tends to be wary around them. He knows full well that they tend to be intelligent and shrewd, so it puts him on guard.
Males have an easier time around him; Roegadyn, Highlander, Midlander, Miqo'te and Elezen males are treated as equals by default until they prove themselves perhaps undeserving (sadly this tends to happen more often than Berrod would like to admit). Lalafell males have to prove themselves from the onset, though he does acknowledge them as clever little bastards.Â
His prejudices usually affect his interactions only subtly, but there are some times when the difference in treatment between the sexes and among the races is blatant.
