    Lamont is engaged in value contradiction.

    Explanation:

    Value contradiction is a mental process where people are not being consistent in their application of a value they express verbally or consciously. In the case of Lamont, it is likely that his implicit prejudice against women is preventing him from valuing their role in professional society as his own implicit biases lead him to doubt in the authority of women and their abilities. Although his prejudice may not be conscious, it is clear he feels that women are physically and intellectually inferior to men.
