Most girls reported sexual harassment (90%), academic sexism (52%), and athletic sexism (76%) at least once, with likelihood increasing with age. Socialization influences and individual factors, however, influenced likelihood of all three forms of sexism. Specifically, learning about feminism and gender-conformity pressures were linked to higher perceptions of sexism. Furthermore, girls&#8217; social gender identity (i.e., perceived gender typicality and gender-role contentedness) and gender-egalitarian attitudes were related to perceived sexism.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Campbell Leaper &amp; Christia Spears Brown, Perceived Experiences with Sexism Among Adolescent Girls, 79 Child Dev. 685 (2008). &#8220;This study investigated predictors of adolescent girls&#8217; experiences with sexism and feminism.
