New study links support for Brett Kavanaugh to the endorsement of hegemonic masculinity

• 
  People who held traditional stereotypes about masculinity tended to have more positive evaluations of Brett Kavanaugh during his contentious Supreme Court hearings and more negative evaluations of the women who accused him of sexual misconduct, according to new research published in Social Psychological and Personality Science.
  
• The authors of the new research have previously found the endorsement of “hegemonic masculinity” — an idealized form of masculinity — was associated with support for Donald Trump.

...The study, “Hegemonic Masculinity Predicts Support for U.S. Political Figures Accused of Sexual Assault“, was authored by Nathaniel E. C. Schermerhorn, Theresa K. Vescio, and Kathrine A. Lewis.
