Interpersonal Punishments and Rewards Tell Pregnant Women: Shop, Don’t Work

Submitted by Tom Goddard on February 21, 2008 - 1:09pm.
Pregnant women have a special status, but “special” is not necessarily good, particularly when it comes to the workplace.  In a fascinating exploration of the Theory of Ambivalent Sexism, Hebl and her colleagues examined how pregnant women are treated differentially from non-pregnant women in two kinds of settings: one consistent with a sexist view of the “proper”, or more traditional role for women (e.g. shopping), and one inconsistent with that view (e.g. employment in a traditionally masculine job).  The short answer to their questions is this: through a series of subtle manifestations of sexism, pregnant women are more likely than non-pregnant women to be treated rudely and evaluated harshly as job applicants, and are more likely to be treated in an overly benevolent, even patronizing way than nonpregnant women when shopping.
