Although gender roles have continued to evolve, stereotypical perceptions about men and women persist. From a traditional perspective, men are viewed as aggressive, competitive, and dominant, whereas women are expected to be pretty, affectionate, and passive. The relevance of gender stereotypes lies in the way such expectations reinforce gender inequality and discrimination. Gender stereotyping is also linked to an increased acceptance of gender-based violence, as such conceptions are based on the premise that women are subordinate to men. The current study uses data from the Barometer on Youth and Gender, conducted by the in 2021 ( = 1201), to analyze the potential associations among gender stereotyping, support for feminism, and acceptance of gender-based violence among young people in Spain (15-29 years old). The results show that young people ascribe, to some extent, stereotypical characteristics to women and men and point to the existence of gender-based occupational stereotypes. Our results shed light on the role that gender stereotyping plays in support for feminism and the acceptance of gender-based violence. They also provide valuable information about the magnitude of gender-stereotypical perceptions among young men and women.
尽管性别角色不断演变，但人们对男性和女性的刻板印象仍然存在。从传统观点来看，男性被视为好斗、竞争和支配的，而女性则被期望美丽、深情和被动。性别刻板印象的相关性在于这些期望强化了性别不平等和歧视的方式。性别刻板印象也与对基于性别的暴力的更高接受度有关，因为这些观念基于女性从属于男性的前提。本研究使用了 2021 年进行的“青年与性别晴雨表”的数据（=1201），分析了西班牙年轻人（15-29 岁）中性别刻板印象、支持女权主义和接受基于性别的暴力之间的潜在关联。研究结果表明，年轻人在某种程度上赋予了女性和男性刻板印象的特征，并指出了存在基于性别的职业刻板印象。我们的研究结果揭示了性别刻板印象在支持女权主义和接受基于性别的暴力方面所扮演的角色。它们还提供了有关年轻男性和女性性别刻板印象感知程度的宝贵信息。
