  • Title: The relationship of self-reported sex-role characteristics and attitudes toward homosexuality.
    Author: Black KN, Stevenson MR.
    Journal: J Homosex; 1984; 10(1-2):83-93. PubMed ID: 6520390.
    Abstract:
    The present study investigated the relationship between self-reported sex-role characteristics and attitudes toward homosexuality using the Bem Sex Role Inventory, the Personal Attributes Questionnaire and the Attitudes toward Homosexuality Scale. Relationships occur for both males and females who are exhibiting greater amounts of cross-sex traits. Females with more instrumental characteristics were more accepting while males with more expressive characteristics were more rejecting. These findings are discussed in relation to those of Weinberger and Millham (1979) who also investigated this relationship, as well as to research investigating the relationship between attitudes toward homosexuality and attitudes toward sex roles and feminism.
