A investigação sobre o sexismo benevolente (SB) emerge na literatura como justificação para manter o sistema de género através da romantização deste tipo de sexismo. O presente estudo procurou perceber de que forma a perceção das mulheres sobre o SB da família de origem está associada ao SB internalizado e, como consequência, às experiências sexistas benevolentes com o parceiro. Foi ainda proposto um potencial fator de bloqueio desta transmissão entre sistemas familiares: a pertença a múltiplos sistemas sociais. 225 participantes, entre os 18 e os 66 anos, que se utocategorizavam como sendo do género feminino e se encontravam num relacionamento heterossexual, responderam a um questionário online. Os resultados comprovaram a primeira hipótese que defendia um efeito indireto entre o SB percebido nos pais, o SB internalizado e as experiências com SB do parceiro. Além disto, o modelo proposto na segunda hipótese foi também confirmado na dimensão intimidade heterossexual, sendo que a pertença a um maior número de grupos reduziu a relação entre o SB dos pais e o SB internalizado. Estes resultados são discutidos em relação com outros estudos neste campo, tendo sido formuladas novas hipóteses para estudos futuros e analisadas as implicações clínicas.
ABSTRACT: Research into benevolent sexism (BS) has emerged in the literature as a justification for maintaining the gender system by romanticizing this type of sexism. This study contributes to understanding how women's perceptions of their family of origin's BS are associated with internalized BS and, as a consequence, benevolent sexist experiences with their partner. A potential factor in blocking this transmission between family systems was also proposed: belonging to multiple social systems. 225 participants, aged between 18 and 66, who selfcategorized as female and were in a heterosexual relationship, answered an online questionnaire. The results confirmed our first hypothesis, showing a significant indirect effect between perceived BS in parents, internalized BS and experiences with BS in the partner. In addition, the model proposed in the second hypothesis was also confirmed in the heterosexual intimacy dimension: belonging to a larger number of groups reduced the relationship between parental BS and internalized BS. These results are discussed in relation to other studies in this field, as we formulate new hypotheses for future studies and analyse clinical implications.
