Is Buddhism as sexist as other religions?

Home More advice Sex

I am making this general statement (I know you get your exceptions), but in most mainstream religions, woman aren't allowed to be priests are expected to be subordinate to their men and for example in the Hindu religion woman aren't allowed to enter the temple while on their period. What I would like to know is whether there are limitations for woman in the buddhism belief/religion as well and if there is what are they?
