When a character in fiction makes a bigoted statement (usually sexism) for no reason other than the (usually female) protagonist to make a rebuttal to insert activist bait in place of actual character development. Primarily done in situations where even a bigoted character would have no reason to make statements like that, like if the character is cowardly and about to be killed by the protagonist.
"I read comic with female protagonist, I liked the story, but it had a lot of inexplicable sexist dialogue which was very distracting."
