Another aspect pointing to femininzation of women is that sex differences in gendered occupational preferences are maximal in the most progressive Western countries (what is known as the gender paradox),<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Countries_with_pronounced_feminist_policies_have_fewer_women_in_leadership_positions</ref> which might partly be attributable to a feminiziation in more industrialized nations. However, this trend is commonly explained by women's innate preference becoming more exposed with liberation.<ref>https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ijop.12265</ref> | Another aspect pointing to femininzation of women is that sex differences in gendered occupational preferences are maximal in the most progressive Western countries (what is known as the gender paradox),<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Countries_with_pronounced_feminist_policies_have_fewer_women_in_leadership_positions</ref> which might partly be attributable to a feminiziation in more industrialized nations.

Conversely, there is more substantial evidence of women's behavior and preferences having become ''masculinized'' in recent history, as e.g. evidenced by a longitudinal survey of Italian adolescents between 2000 and 2017,<ref name="minello2020"></ref> in which women stated to engage more in [[promiscuity|casual sex]] and less likely regard premarital sex as problematic. In particular, women's rate of infidelity has increased, closing the gap in the youngest U.S. cohorts.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Half_of_women_in_relationships_report_maintaining_a_.27back-up.27_partner_in_their_social_circle</ref> | Conversely, there is more substantial evidence of women's behavior and preferences having become ''masculinized'' in recent history, as e.g. evidenced by a longitudinal survey of Italian adolescents between 2000 and 2017,<ref name="minello2020"></ref> in which women stated to engage more in [[promiscuity|casual sex]] and less likely regard premarital sex as problematic.

Female university students' scores remained unchanged in the MMPI Masculinity/Femininity (Mf) scale between 1938 and 2007 while men experienced a change toward femininity.<ref name="twenge2010"></ref> | ||
Diverging trends in women's trajectory regarding feminization could be explained by their sexuality and overall behavior being more [[Roy Baumeister|malleable]] than men by sociocultural factors, largely owing to them being more agreeable and socially compliant. This means while women may become more feminine biologically like men, they might become more masculine due to social norms pushing them toward historically masculine behavior such as promiscuity and gaining prestige through material or scientific achievements. | Diverging trends in women's trajectory regarding feminization could be explained by their sexuality and overall behavior being more [[Roy Baumeister|malleable]] than men by sociocultural factors, likely largely owing to them being more agreeable and socially compliant.
