description Homosexuals are stereotypically viewed as deviating from the conventional sex role standards of our society. Homosexual males are regarded as effeminate, while homosexual females are seen as masculine. Some limited empirical support for these stereotypes has been reported in the literature. However, results remain inconclusive. In order to provide a further test of these stereotypes, 186 male and female homosexual, bisexual, and heterosexual subjects were administered the Bem Sex Role Inventory. Results showed no significant support for prevailing stereotypes. Possible reasons for the discrepancy between these findings and previous reports are explored and suggestions are offered for future research.
