women and animal advocacy : ウィキペディア英語版 | women and animal advocacy
Women have played a central role in animal advocacy since the 19th century. The animal advocacy movement – embracing animal rights, animal welfare, and anti-vivisectionism – has been disproportionately initiated and led by women, particularly in the United Kingdom.〔Gaarder, Emily. ("The 'Gender' Question of Animal Rights: Why are Women the Majority?" ), paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Sociological Association, Montreal Convention Center, August 11, 2006.〕 Women are more likely to support animal rights than men.〔Signal, Tania; Taylor, Nicola. (2006). "Attitudes to Animals: Demographics Within a Community Sample". ''Society & Animals'', 14:2, pages 147–157. doi:10.1163/156853006776778743〕〔Herzog, Harold. (2007). "Gender Differences in Human-Animal Interactions: A Review". ''Anthrozoos: A Multidisciplinary Journal of The Interactions of People & Animals''. 20:1. Pages 7–21.〕 A 1996 study of adolescents by Linda Pifer suggested that factors that may partially explain this discrepancy include attitudes towards feminism and science, scientific literacy, and the presence of a greater emphasis on "nurturance or compassion" amongst women.〔Pifer, Linda. (1996). "Exploring the Gender Gap in Young Adults' Attitudes about Animal Research". ''Society and Animals''. 4:1. Pages 37–52.〕 Although vegetarianism does not necessarily imply animal advocacy, it is also worth noting that a 1992 market research study conducted by the Yankelovich research organization concluded that "of the 12.4 million people (the US ) who call themselves vegetarian, 68% are female, while only 32% are male". ==History==
