GAYET, Cecilia e JUAREZ, Fatima. Influence of gender believes on the sexual and reproductive health trajectory of young Mexican women. Pap. poblac [online]. 2020, vol.26, n.103, pp.89-121. Epub 14-Abr-2021. ISSN 2448-7147. https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2020.103.04.
The objective of this work is to study how gender believes influence different sexual and reproductive trajectories of women once controlled by social origin stratum, the schooling years reached and other variables of interest. Using the National Survey of Determinant Factors of Adolescent Pregnancy 2017 (Encuesta Nacional de los Factores Determinantes del Embarazo Adolescente -Enfadea 2017), we estimated a gender believes index and constructed three groups of women, one with gender believes that are more traditional, other intermediate and another with gender relieves less traditional. Through logistic regression models, we analyzed the influence of gender believes on age at sexual debut, use of contraception at the first intercourse, and age of women at first birth born alive. To have less traditional believes influence women to initiate sexual debut at an earlier age and use contraception in that act, independently of the social origin stratum and years of schooling. Gender believes were not associated to having a child before age 20.
