Variations in gender stereotypes based on having or no having children in a population from southern Chile

Abstract The following article presents adherence to gender stereotypes in 284 participants. Dimensions such as femininity/masculinity, parental roles, sexuality, skills, and abilities were studied. It was observed that having or not having children can influence adherence to stereotypes, with greater adherence among those without children. Men showed greater adherence to femininity/masculinity and sexuality stereotypes compared to women. This information can be valuable for designing prevention programs that aim to promote gender equality and combat discrimination.
