- Such a great initiative! Looking forward to the next session!

- 📢Excited to share our new paper in @ejpgjournal.bsky.social on gender & political responsiveness in Spain, co-authored w/ @atiradocastro.bsky.social! 💡Do politicians respond equally to men’s & women’s policy preferences? Spoiler: they don’t. Let's dive in👇
- 🚨 NEW ARTICLE ALERT🚨 Are politicians more responsive to the policy preferences of men than women? @atiradocastro.bsky.social and @bcaihuelas.bsky.social provide answers with 40 years' worth of empirical evidence from Spain 🇪🇸📊 buff.ly/3DPbymq
- Descriptive evidence shows gender preference gaps across different types of public policies. Men and women disagree most on gender-specific policies (e.g., gender quotas in management or politics), which polarizes their preferences.
- What happens when men’s and women’s policy preferences diverge? Our analysis shows political elites tend to favor men’s preferences. The greater the disagreement, the more decisions align with what men want.

View full thread💡 Key takeaway: Gender matters in political responsiveness, but socio-economic class magnifies this inequality. Check out the full paper here: buff.ly/3DPbymq We'd love to hear your thoughts! 👇
- I had the pleasure of attending a fantastic presentation by @martafraile.bsky.social at the UPF Research Forum today. She shared her inspiring joint work with @atiradocastro.bsky.social and @pzuluaga.bsky.social on influencers and feminism. Can't wait to see it published!!
