    Abstract : The present study aimed to further investigate the current state of gender stereotypes and their function in Swedish population in a two-fold way: Primarily by investigating the content of prescriptive stereotypes (how people should be) in relation to people’s self-views in gendered traits, and secondarily by investigating how people who behave stereotypically and counter-stereotypically are perceived and evaluated in Sweden today. Results supported the existence of a strong traditionally gendered prescription but also revealed a self-prescription discrepancy such that participants’ self-views in gendered traits were found to be less gender stereotypically pronounced.
