This Feminist ‘Equality’ Study Proves Men Right and Feminism Wrong
from Honey Badger Radio · host Honey Badger Brigade
Precarious manhood theory posits a double standard in gender rules such that prescriptions (“shoulds”) and proscriptions (“should nots”) are endorsed more strongly for men than for women. Here, we tested this hypothesis by asking whether people view agency as more desirable in men than communion is in women, and weakness as less desirable in men than dominance is in women.
