性研究通常优先考虑基于伴侣的性别身体的吸引力,而不是基于其他特征的吸引力,包括性别表达和个性特征。事实上,性别可能是性吸引力的核心。然而,它的作用很少得到实证的关注。为了探讨性别和性别特征与性吸引力之间的关系,目前的研究评估了性多样化的个体如何描述他们对女性,男性和性别非特异性特征的吸引力。280人的样本回答了开放式的问题:“你觉得男人有什么吸引力?”和“你觉得女人有什么吸引力”我们将反应编码为与身体和/或心理特征有关的反应,并将其分为男性、女性或非性别特异性。我们的分析表明,参与者在回答这两个问题时最常提到性别非特异性特征,女性特征对女性的吸引力超过男性特征,男性特征对男性的吸引力超过女性特征。此外,参与者认为女性的身体特征比男性的身体特征多,男性的心理特征比女性的心理特征多,无论是在他们对女性的吸引力还是整体上。这些结果强调了考虑基于性别的吸引力的重要性,而不仅仅是性别。
Sexuality research has generally privileged attractions based on partners’ sexed physical bodies over attractions based on other features, including gender expression and personality traits. Gender may actually be quite central to sexual attractions. However, its role has received little empirical attention. To explore how gendered and sexed features, among others, are related to sexual attractions, the current study assessed how sexually diverse individuals described their attractions to feminine, masculine, and gender-nonspecific features of women and men. A sample of 280 individuals responded to the open-ended questions: “What do you find attractive in a man?” and “What do you find attractive in a woman?” We coded responses as pertaining to physical and/or psychological features, and as being gendered masculine, feminine, or gender-nonspecific. Our analyses showed that participants named gender-nonspecific features most frequently in responses to both questions, feminine features more than masculine features in attractions to women, and masculine features more than feminine features in attractions to men. Additionally, participants named feminine physical features more than masculine physical features, and masculine psychological features more than feminine psychological features, both in their attractions to women and overall. These results highlight the importance of considering attractions based on gender, rather than sex alone.
