There are plenty examples of sexism in business that seems to go unregulated. Vegas night clubs for example sometimes charge men up to 4 times as much as women.

At the very least, the employment angle. Civil Rights Act of 1964:

"It shall be an unlawful employment practice for an employer

(1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin;"
