A new study has shown that women are attracted to macho men and see modesty as a sign of weakness of evolution. The modest man is, in fact, a great journey of women and men, according to research. Corinne A. Moss-Racusin, a doctoral candidate at the Department of Psychology, Rutgers University, has explored the consequences for men (and women) when they have acted a bit in the interview. She said the plaintiffs in the staging interviews were judged equally competent, but the "small" men were less as a sign of social reaction. The modesty was considered a sign of weakness, a state of low trait for men that could affect their chances of employment or income potential. However, among women, modesty is not perceived negatively, or that he was related to his state.
"For men and women, there are things they should and should not be. Women must be communal and other-oriented, but they should not be dominant. Historically and cross-Culturally, men were more stereotyped agentic is more independent and self-Focused than women, "said Moss-Racusin. In the study, 132 female and 100 student volunteers (who received a partial academic credit for their psychology course) posted the interviews on videotape, 15 minutes working male or female. All candidates have been paid actors repeated to provide similar answers, "modest" for the neutral position which required social skills and strong technical skills. The researchers sought to determine the gender stereotypes promote backlash.
"Women are allowed to be low, but this line is strongly for forbidden men." However, domination is reserved for men and for women it is prohibited. Thus, gender stereotypes are composed of four sets of rules and expectations of behavior include both should do and should not do for each gender, said Moss-Racusin. Prediction of researchers are that modest male candidates would face discrimination in the hiring only has not been supported, however, and it assumes that the status of men is higher than that of women, sweet men are offered for the benefit of doubt and are less likely to experience discrimination in hiring and dominant women.
