Unexpected achievement: my paper published in the @poqjournal.bsky.social got almost 10k upvotes on Reddit. With the obvious caveat: it's a literature review of associations between attitudes (sexism and political preferences), so we should be careful with saying that one "shapes" another.

''Potrzebujemy Narodowej Strategii Zdrowia Mężczyzn. Niech premier i prezydent wyjdą na konferencję i powiedzą: jeśli chcemy być prawdziwą częścią Europy Zachodniej, to musimy zadbać o zdrowie mężczyzn'' - mówi Michał Gulczyński w podcaście ''Plus Minus'' Rzeczpospolita.

Next week (12–13 May), we at LSE are hosting a @civica.bsky.social workshop on Exclusionary Politics, organised by yours truly with @isoldehegemann.bsky.social, @miguelpereira.bsky.social and @zachdickson.bsky.social. For attendance, please sign up here in advance: us.list-manage.com/SpeGlF3Rh5M

Today marks one year since I submitted a paper to a good journal in political science. And I’m still waiting for the first reviews. When we write to the editors, they reluctantly promise to remind the reviewers. Any recommendations? What should I do?

Radio Poznań opublikowało wywiad z @gulczynski.bsky.social wokół książki "Mężczyźni. O nierówności płci". Polecamy szczególnie świetną sondę uliczną (od 5:50). Z nietypowych tematów była mowa o zdrowiu mężczyzn przed poczęciem dziecka oraz dwie piosenki wybrane przez naszego wiceprezesa 🙂

Two days, three invitations to review... The sad day has come when I must start turning down some invitations. Sorry.

Many studies attribute the success of right-wing parties to sexism. What is sexism? How is it measured? How does it influence elections? My systematic review of studies on sexism as a predictor of political behavior and attitudes is about to appear in @poqjournal.bsky.social! 1/7

My short debut in the Brussels bubble media. I comment on the last edition of the Gender Equality Index. Don't believe we are "50 years from equality"; the increase of the index is driven mostly by women's increasing participation in power. There is little or negative change in other areas.

I identified 97 studies (including 84 after Trump was elected in 2016 and 42 on that election alone). Most of the papers have been dedicated to the US. I hope the questions included in the recent @ess-survey.bsky.social will lead to many new studies on Europe. 2/7

As one reviewer said: “The appendix is a treasure trove of information.” It has two parts: 1) An Excel table with a detailed description of all studies: concepts and survey items, research questions, results. I tried to make this database easy to search through and filter. osf.io/fajcy/ 5/7

So useful!

Gender attitudes are likely more important than gender alone. The literature confirms that hostile and modern sexism played a role in Trump’s election and probably the success of other radical/far-right parties. 3/7
