“…For example, Widman and colleagues (2013) reported that hostile masculinity was associated with sexual aggression among general community men but not convicted sex offenders. Another study examined cross-cultural differences and found that the association was significant among college students in the United States but not those in the Philippines (Tuliao et al, 2019). In addition, numerous studies—including one with a male adolescent sample (Huntington et al, 2020)—reported that high levels of hostile masculinity interacted with strong preferences for impersonal sex to predict sexual aggression (e.g., Malamuth et al, 1991; Wheeler et al, 2002).…”

“…These between-study and cross-literature distinctions are likely due to a convergence of factors, including differences in construct conceptualizations, theoretical perspectives, and measurement tools. Of particular interest, some research also demonstrated differences between populations, which indicated that hostile masculinity might only pertain to certain men within specific cultural contexts, such as noncriminalized men in the United States (Tuliao et al, 2019; Widman et al, 2013).…”

Hostile masculinity and its components (i.e., sexual dominance, hostility toward women, adversarial sexual beliefs, rape myth acceptance, and acceptance of interpersonal violence) have received considerable research attention as predictors of male-perpetrated sexual aggression toward women. The current systematic review sought to synthesize and organize the extant literature. Studies were included in the systematic review if they were published in a peer-reviewed journal between the years 1990 and 2020, contained a male sample within the United States, analyzed quantitative data, and examined at least one component of hostile masculinity and its association with sexual aggression. Literature searches were conducted in three academic databases, and additional records were identified through references sections from known hostile masculinity research. A total of 95 articles met inclusion criteria and were integrated into the overview of results. The reviewed literature provided broad support for the association between hostile masculinity and sexual aggression, including evidence for the theoretical framework posited by the confluence model of sexual aggression. Prevention efforts are likely to find success by modifying hostile masculine characteristics among men, particularly within problematic environmental contexts. However, the review also highlighted the need for a uniform conceptualization and operational definition of hostile masculinity. Additionally, empirical work with diverse samples is necessary to determine the scope of generalizability and potential subcultural distinctions. Future research that addresses these limitations will contribute to the understanding and prevention of sexual aggression beyond what is provided by the extant literature.
