Research Synopsis

My research examines widespread beliefs about gender and masculinity, and how these shape people's lives. In particular, I research how gender beliefs shape people's identities, how they differ across cultures, and how they contribute to discrimination, sexism, and systemic inequities. I am currently involved in several large-scale collaborations that seek to understand topics such as gender equality, sexual prejudice, gender-based aggression, and beliefs about manhood, from a cross-cultural lens.
