Prior research highlights the relationship between anti-gay prejudice and masculinity: straight men (1) avoid being misclassified as gay and (2) experience increased anti-gay attitudes when their masculinity is threatened. We hypothesized that a sexual advance from a gay man would constitute a threat to straight man's masculinity. Four experiments and a cross-cultural replication (= 1407) manipulated perceptions of a same-sex sexual advance and found that straight men experienced greater public discomfort and subsequent anger. This anger predicted both non-aggressive (e.g., avoidance) and aggressive (e.g., likelihood to use violence) compensatory acts of masculinity. These findings were not ameliorated by reasserting heterosexuality (Study 2), were unique to sexual advances by gay men, not straight women (Study 3), and were replicated in the United States (Study 4a) and the United Kingdom (Study 4b). Findings suggest that a same-sex sexual advance threatens straight men's masculinity and implications for future research are discussed.

对男同性恋性进步的看法会导致负面影响和男性气质的补偿行为

先前的研究强调了反同性恋偏见与男子气概之间的关系:直男(1)避免被错误地归类为同性恋,(2)当他们的男子气概受到威胁时,他们的反同性恋态度会增加。我们假设男同性恋者的性行为会对直男的男子气概构成威胁。四个实验和一个跨文化复制(= 1407)操纵了对同性性行为的看法,发现异性恋男性经历了更大的公众不适和随后的愤怒。这种愤怒预测了男性气概的非攻击性(例如,回避)和攻击性(例如,使用暴力的可能性)补偿行为。重申异性恋并没有改善这些发现(研究 2),是男同性恋而非异性恋女性的性挑逗所独有的(研究 3),并且在美国(研究 4a)和英国(研究 4b)得到了复制。研究结果表明,同性性行为威胁异性恋男性的阳刚之气,并讨论了对未来研究的影响。
