The Consequences of Disdainful Hook-Ups for Later Egalitarian Relationships of Girls.

INTRODUCTION

There is extensive research about the consequences that toxic relationships with dominant masculinities have on different areas of women's lives, including how they can influence future relationships they establish. Some of these women reproduce toxic relationships with dominant masculinities in their following relationships, and some women start to establish sexual-affective relationships with non-dominant masculinity models. However, less is known about the specific consequences in non-dominant masculinities who establish relationships with women who have not overcome the false memory of excitement regarding their toxic relationships.

METHODOLOGY

In order to shed light on the consequences for non-dominant masculinities, eight communicative interviews were conducted with four women and four men.

RESULTS

The main findings indicate that those female participants who have kept an exciting memory of toxic relationships, when in an equal relationship, have attitudes of disdain towards non-dominant masculinities. They may ridicule them, not value their personal or intellectual abilities, talk down to them, and even negatively value their sexual aptitudes.

DISCUSSION

The application of the previous literature to our results leads to establishing the work on memories of relationships that have led to socialization in violent relationships as a preventive approach.

CONCLUSION

The previously mentioned attitudes could generate health problems for non-dominant masculinities engaged in these relationships.
