The aim of this lecture is twofold: on the one hand, to scrutinize the mechanisms and effects of sexist discrimination and stereotyping of women MPs in the House of Commons (Puwar 2000; Ilie 2013); on the other hand, to identify the strategies used by female (and male) MPs to subvert discriminatory representations, and to counteract gender-biased and sexist treatment. The focus of the multi-level analysis is on three recurrent strategies: objectifying women MPs through fixation on personal appearance rather than professional performance (e.g. making trivialising comments about women$B!G(Bs hair and dressing style); patronizing women MPs through the use of derogatory forms of address (e.g. directly addressing them by the terms of endearment $B!H(Bhoney$B!I(B, $B!H(Bdear$B!I(B, $B!H(Bwoman$B!I(B); stigmatizing women MPs through abusive and discriminatory labelling (e.g. ascribing to them stereotypically insulting names). The findings of this investigation show that there is growing need for substantive change of the parliamentary culture of abusive behaviour and sexism, especially during PMQs, which can only be brought about by means of concerted institutional and behavioural normative reform, as well as by parliamentary culture $B!F(Bregendering$B!G(B (Sones et al. 2005). <BIO DATA> Cornelia Ilie is Professor of Linguistics and Rhetoric at Str$(D+S(Bmstad Academy, Sweden.
