The use of the term sexists applies to those that believe it's perfectly okay for there to be essentially no representation of women.

You can apply any term to any group, but in this case you are applying it inaccurately. Someone who didn't want a woman on the supreme court because of her sex would be sexist. Someone who made no special effort to put a woman on the court because of her sex would not be sexist, and in fact would be further from sexist than someone who wants to put her on the court because of her sex. Not considering sex as a factor at all simply is not sexist.

I would have all political parties represented in the Supreme Court. Full of diversity from all aspects - even by Party, including Independents, I would also require people of different occupations too so you don't get a bunch of lawyers making decisions about things they don't know a thing about.

It would appear that you want a very large supreme court.
