Mnenja in stališča mladih o spolni neenakosti

Rus, Petja (avtor), Leskošek, Vesna (mentor)

V svojem diplomskem delu sem se osredotočila na mnenja in stališča mladih o spolni neenakosti. Zanimalo me je, če mladi poznajo in prepoznajo spolno neenakost. Raziskovala sem, kako mladi občutijo posledice spolne neenakosti, kako se z njimi soočajo in kakšno je njihovo mnenje glede prizadevanja za spolno enakost v družbi. Skozi raziskovanje sem želela opredeliti strategije, ki jih mladi uporabljajo pri prizadevanju za spolno enakost v svojih skupnostih ter morebitne ideje, kako lahko prispevajo k boju za spolno enakost. Zanimalo me je, kako mladi zasedajo vloge v družbi, kjer velja spolna neenakost in kakšne posledice opazijo pri zadovoljevanju družbenih pričakovanj. Hkrati me je zanimal vpliv promoviranja spolnih stereotipov in vlog v medijih in pop kulturi. V teoretičnem delu sem opredelila spolno neenakost in izpostavila področja, kjer se spolna neenakost pokaže v družbi. Predstavila sem razlike med spoli v povezavi z družbeno neenakostjo in posledice moškosrediščne družbe. Pojasnila sem vplive družbenih spolnih norm na mladostnike in opredelila dejavnike, ki vplivajo na odnos mladostnikov do spolne enakosti. Izpostavila sem stiske transspolnih in spolno raznolikih mladih v povezavi s polno neenakostjo. Predstavila sem pričakovanja mladih o njihovi prihodnosti v družbi, kjer prevladuje spolna neenakost. Poleg tega sem izpostavila tudi pomembnost vključevanja mladih pri prizadevanju in doseganju spolne enakosti. Izvedla sem raziskavo s pomočjo spletne ankete, številčne podatke zaprtih vprašanj sem kvantitativno obdelala, besedne opise odprtih vprašanj pa sem kvalitativno analizirala s pomočjo odprtega in osnega kodiranja. Ugotovila sem, da se mladi zavedajo in zaznavajo spolno neenakost v različnih oblikah. Neenakosti opazijo na številnih področjih svojega življenja. Številni mladi izražajo prizadevanje za spremembe na področju spolne neenakosti, saj se soočajo s stereotipi in pričakovanji, povezanimi s spolom. Mediji igrajo pomembno vlogo pri oblikovanju teh pričakovanj, predvsem toksične vsebine, ki poglabljajo spolno neenakost. Kljub različnim mnenjem vplivu medijev na spolno neenakost, večina mladih izrazi potrebo po večji vključenosti netradicionalnih predstav v medijih.

Izvleček

In my thesis, I focused on the opinions and attitudes of young people about gender inequality. I was interested in whether young people know and recognize gender inequality. I researched how young people feel the consequences of gender inequality, how they deal with them and what their opinion is about the pursuit of gender equality in society. Through research, I wanted to define the strategies that young people use in the pursuit of gender equality in their communities, as well as possible ideas on how they can contribute to the fight for gender equality. I was interested in how young people occupy roles in a society where gender inequality persists and what consequences they see when meeting social expectations. At the same time, I was interested in the impact of promoting gender stereotypes and roles in media and pop culture. In the theoretical part, I defined gender inequality and pointed out areas where gender inequality manifests itself in society. I presented the differences between the sexes in connection with social inequality and the consequences of a male-centered society. I explained the influence of social gender norms on adolescents and defined the factors that influence the attitude of adolescents towards gender equality. I highlighted the plight of transgender and gender diverse youth in connection with gender inequality. I presented the expectations of young people about their future in a society dominated by gender inequality. In addition, I also highlighted the importance of involving young people in striving for and achieving gender equality. I conducted the research using an online survey, quantitatively processed the numerical data of the closed questions, and qualitatively analyzed the verbal descriptions of the open questions using open and axial coding. I found out that young people are aware of and perceive gender inequality in different forms. They notice inequalities in many areas of their lives. Many young people express a desire for change in the area of gender inequality, as they confront stereotypes and expectations related to gender. The media plays an important role in shaping these expectations, especially toxic content that deepens gender inequality. Despite the different opinions about this influence of the media on gender inequality, the majority of young people express the need for greater inclusion of non-traditional representations in the media.
