Subversive humor has historically been considered a way of protesting, raising awareness, and seeking change. However, to date, no known empirical research has explored the consequences of exposure to humor that criticizes, confronts, and questions sexism (i.e., subversive humor against sexism or feminist humor). In the present research, we conducted two experiments to analyze the impact of exposure to subversive humor against sexism (vs. neutral humor) on the degree of involvement in collective action for gender equality, taking into account the feminist identity of participants. The results of Study 1 ( n = 135) revealed that Spanish women and men with weaker feminist identification showed a higher proclivity to participate in collective action for gender equality after being exposed to subversive humor against sexism (vs. neutral humor). Study 2 ( n = 134 Spanish women and men) replicated these results and expanded them to behavioral intentions to participate in this type of collective action. Our findings show the potential implications of using this type of humor for collective action for gender equality. Overall, subversive humor against sexism may function as a supportive tool to combat sexist attitudes, discrimination against women, and gender inequality by raising awareness in people with lower feminist identity to get them more involved in collective action. This approach would facilitate recruiting activists, getting more media coverage, and building a collective identity supporting mobilization against sexism.

为性别平等开玩笑:反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默激发了女性主义认同较弱的男性和女性的集体行动

颠覆性幽默历来被认为是一种抗议、提高认识和寻求改变的方式。然而,迄今为止,还没有任何已知的实证研究探讨过接触批评、面对和质疑性别歧视的幽默(即反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默或女权主义幽默)的后果。在本研究中,我们进行了两项实验,以分析暴露于反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默(与中性幽默)对参与性别平等集体行动程度的影响,同时考虑到参与者的女权主义身份。研究 1 (n = 135) 的结果显示,在暴露于反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默(相对于中性幽默)后,具有较弱女权主义认同的西班牙女性和男性表现出更高的参与性别平等集体行动的倾向。研究 2(n = 134 名西班牙女性和男性)复制了这些结果,并将其扩展到参与此类集体行动的行为意图。我们的研究结果表明,将这种幽默用于促进性别平等的集体行动的潜在影响。总体而言,反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默可以作为一种支持工具,通过提高女权主义身份较低的人的意识,让他们更多地参与集体行动,来对抗性别歧视态度、对妇女的歧视和性别不平等。这种方法将有助于招募积极分子,获得更多媒体报道,并建立支持反对性别歧视动员的集体身份。我们的研究结果表明,将这种幽默用于促进性别平等的集体行动的潜在影响。总体而言,反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默可以作为一种支持工具,通过提高女权主义身份较低的人的意识,让他们更多地参与集体行动,来对抗性别歧视态度、对妇女的歧视和性别不平等。这种方法将有助于招募积极分子,获得更多媒体报道,并建立支持反对性别歧视动员的集体身份。我们的研究结果表明,将这种幽默用于促进性别平等的集体行动的潜在影响。总体而言,反对性别歧视的颠覆性幽默可以作为一种支持工具,通过提高女权主义身份较低的人的意识,让他们更多地参与集体行动,来对抗性别歧视态度、对妇女的歧视和性别不平等。这种方法将有助于招募积极分子,获得更多媒体报道,并建立支持反对性别歧视动员的集体身份。通过提高女权主义认同度较低的人的意识,让他们更多地参与集体行动,从而消除性别不平等。这种方法将有助于招募积极分子,获得更多媒体报道,并建立支持反对性别歧视动员的集体身份。通过提高女权主义认同度较低的人的意识,让他们更多地参与集体行动,从而消除性别不平等。这种方法将有助于招募积极分子,获得更多媒体报道,并建立支持反对性别歧视动员的集体身份。
