Sumario:This paper analyzes the effect of sociodemographic factors on the prevalence of sexist stereotypes in adults in the urban area of the municipality of Acapulco, in the state of Guerrero, Mexico. Logistic regressions are estimated using data from a local survey to examine seven stereotypes about the remuneration and position of women at work, the exercise of their sexuality, childcare and domestic chores. The results show that the prevalence of sexist stereotypes increases with age, but decreases with schooling; an emerging finding is that not only the sex of the person surveyed determines the prevalence of some sexist stereotypes, but also the sex of the person conducting the interview.
