Chris Williamson: This Quiz Determines If You’re Sexist
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Identify benevolent sexism by recognizing statements that infantilize or overly romanticize women, such as “women should be cherished and protected by men.”
- Understand evolutionary psychology to better interpret scales like benevolent sexism and toxic masculinity, as they often measure awareness of biological facts rather than attitudes.
- Challenge assumptions in psychological scales that pathologize natural preferences, such as women’s attraction to men who offer protection.
- Be aware of societal biases in interpreting behaviors, such as men’s protective instincts being labeled as sexist rather than evolutionary traits.
Notable Quotes
“Women’s preference for protection is seriously strong.”
“The ability to turn on and turn off aggression is really rare.”
Bottom Line
Examine and question the framing of psychological scales, particularly those related to sexism, to avoid misinterpreting natural human behaviors and preferences.
