VIANA, Hyalle Abreu; ROSAS-TORRES, Ana Raquel  e  ESTRAMIANA, José Luis Álvaro. Egalitarian men: stereotypes and discrimination. Act.Colom.Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.2, pp.111-128. ISSN 0123-9155.  https://doi.org/10.14718/acp.2020.23.2.6.

This article aimed to analyze the stereotypes attributed to "egalitarian men", understood here as men who support gender equality in relation to domestic and family responsibilities as well as inclusion in the workforce. To do so, two studies were carried out. The first study investigated the attribution of stereotypes to egalitarian men through a single open question. A total of 250 university students participated in this study, of which 51.1% were male, and their average age was 21.5 years (SD = 4.39). The second study analyzed the attribution of stereotypes to egalitarian or traditional men and women in a work context considered masculine. Participants included 221 university students with a mean age of 21.9 years (SD = 4.19), the majority (54.3%) being male. Taken together, the results of the two studies indicate that the egalitarian man is perceived as fragile and possibly homosexual. On the other hand, he is also seen as being more competent than traditional men.
