I had such a fun time speaking with @lizdavidbarrett.bsky.social on the KickBack podcast about the role that both voters and women officeholders can play in electoral accountability for corruption in Latin America. Thanks for having me on @kickbackgap.bsky.social!

Happen to see that the openly gay leader of the D66 party is likely to lead the new government in the Netherlands? Curious how citizens evaluate lesbian and gay party leaders? My latest co-authored article exploring this question is now online (and open access)!

Lesbian and gay party leaders receive lower leadership evaluations than straight leaders in the UK, and the effects are consistent across genders. Interesting yet discouraging findings in our BJPS paper. @josephfcozza.bsky.social @gdilandro.bsky.social Andrea Aldrich @utgovernment.bsky.social

BJPolS abstract focused on how citizens evaluate lesbian and gay leaders, particularly in political contexts, and its impact on leadership evaluations compared to straight counterparts.

Thank you so much, Diana. I’m grateful for your mentorship, insightful feedback, and support over the years! I’m also grateful to Randy Stevenson, Jonathan Homola, Leslie Schwindt-Bayer, and Mikki Hebl for their support

So proud of @gdilandro.bsky.social for successfully defending his thesis "Political Parties and the Gender Voting Gap in Western Democracies: A Supply and Demand Framework." He's already published one dissertation paper in @bjpols.bsky.social & there's more great gender & politics work to come! 🍾

📰 Our research on the mental load is on CBS Mornings! 💥

In @jmfncfr.bsky.social, we find mothers manage 71% of family tasks—rising to 79% for daily routines. A powerful but often invisible form of inequality.

Grateful to team up with @leahruppanner.bsky.social on this work -- more to come!

🚨NEW ARTICLE🚨

The apparent rising gender gap in political preferences is fact becoming one of the hottest topics in politics today.

In this new short paper, @profrosiecamp.bsky.social‬ & Minna Cowper-Coles take a look at the data across generations and countries 📊

I am incredibly proud that my book, co-authored with Andrea Aldrich, is published. Using an original party leadership dataset from 11 parliamentary democracies, Andrea and I show that women candidates face a glass ceiling for leadership and quickly sink once elected (the quicksand theory).

🥳We got page nrs!

🤓In this CPS article, Rosie Shorrocks and I test mechanisms that according to modernization theory can explain modern gender gaps.

🧐Our results imply that women with different political views select into different life trajectories - in education, work, out of marriage.

I am honored & humbled working w/ Amanda Clayton & @dzobrien.bsky.social. Our latest @apsrjournal.bsky.social shows that gender quotas do *not* erode legitimacy: across democracies, voters prefer legislatures w/ gender balance to those w/ male dominance, full stop.

Thank you!

Thank you, @dzobrien.bsky.social, for your feedback, support, and for the great conversations along the way

Really proud of @gdilandro.bsky.social, whose new BJPS article shows that increases in 🚺's labor force participation are associated w/ 🚺's support for the left—but only when left parties support gender-egalitarian labor market policies.

BJPolS abstract discussing how party support and gender equality in the labor market affect the gender voting gap, referencing multiple studies and data from the last three decades.

In my new @bjpols.bsky.social, I show that the longstanding association between female labor force participation and ♀️ support for left-wing parties is conditional on their advocacy for gender equality in labor markets. Western Europe (1990-2019)

Party behavior matters for the gender voting gap!

Now with page numbers! Don't miss @rosieshorrocks.bsky.social 's excellent book on gender differences in political attitudes and how they influence party voting in Western democracies.

Read our new paper on how the economic empowerment of one generation of women drives greater political officeholding for the next 💪✨
