From the supplier: A study of 2,060 French-speaking college students in Quebec examined gender differences in sociosexual scripts and power relations. Results suggest a transitional period in which new patterns of relationship are being explored. Reduced gender differences in personality traits indicate that socialization has become more androgynous. Women report more sexual partners and longer-lasting love relationships than men. In communication styles, women tend to favor negotiation, whereas men choose withdrawal. Overall gender equality appears to lag behind sexual equality. Sexual self-efficacy, erotic initiatives, contraception and AIDS prevention are also discussed.
