🚨 New paper out! 🚨
We use Eurobarometer data to explore how strongly people across the EU reject the “no means yes” rape myth.
Gender gaps persist, but shrink with higher gender equality and “only yes means yes” laws.

🚨 We analyze gender gaps in STEM aspirations across educational pathways in Switzerland.
Gender gaps are larger in vocational (VET) routes than in academic pathways — and existing theories explain less of these gaps among students aspiring VET.

🚨 Are young women becoming more left-wing & young men more right-wing?
We analyzed 32 European countries (1990–2023).
📊 Some show growing gaps—others don’t.
📊 Gaps tend to be bigger where gender equality is higher.
