chauvinism
although this term comes from a man's name (Nicolas Chauvin, known for his exaggerated patriotism and attachment to Napoleon), it seems male-associated not because of its etymology but because of its mid-20th-century use for men in such terms as "male chauvinist" and "male chauvinist pig." In this case, use "sexist" or "male supremacist." Both women and men can be chauvinists in the original sense. See male chauvinist/male chauvinist pig.
