Purpose: Benevolent sexism, defined as glorifying behaviors found to follow traditional gender roles, can lead to gender inequity and prejudice. Recent studies revealed the dark side of social capital on health through discrimination against outsiders. In the context of benevolent sexism, men and women who do not conform to traditional gender roles may be subject to discrimination. However, empirical studies on the association between social capital and benevolent sexism belief are scarce. We aimed to examine the association between social capital and benevolent sexism belief. Methods: This study used data from a large online survey conducted from September to October 2021 in Japan (n = 27,952; 13,752 men and 14,200 women). We measured benevolent sexism belief by the Benevolent Sexism Scale for Japanese and individual-level social capital via a questionnaire. We examined associations between both individual-level social capital and prefecture-level social capital, and benevolent sexism after adjusting for covariates, stratified by sex. Results: Among men, both individual-level and prefecture-level social capital were associated with higher benevolent sexism beliefs (coefficient: 0.20 (95%CI: 0.09, 0.32) and 0.17 (95%CI: 0.01, 0.33), respectively). In contrast, among women, individual-level social capital was inversely associated with benevolent sexism belief (coefficient −0.43 (95%CI: −0.54, −0.31)), and prefecture-level social capital was not associated with benevolent sexism belief (coefficient: 0.03 (95%CI: −0.10, 0.16)). Conclusion: This study suggested that both individual and community social capital may accelerate benevolent sexism among men, while individual social capital plays a protective role in benevolent sexism among women.

“…Maarten Van Dijck and Paul Trio suggest that corporative life after Trent weakened due to the massive number of confraternal members and the lack of collective gatherings. 36 However, it is not clear whether the experience of a shared devotion as well as the collective desire to have an honourable and easy passage into the afterlife required face-to-face social gathering in order to remain strong. Given their impressive sphere of influence and the strong emphasis on the role of confraternities as guards of the moral and spiritual well-being of the faithful, it is not unlikely that religious brotherhoods did have their share in shaping and creating the cultural and moral categories in which someone's creditworthiness was conceived .…”

This article explores the contingency between the membership and daily functioning of religious confraternities, and the access to and extension of informal credit by urban households. It thus seeks to answer the question whether seventeenth-and eighteenth-century religious confraternities mattered in generating the requirements for market expansion based on interpersonal credit in the local economy of a small early modern town in transition. The analysis suggests that, in so far as confraternal socialization did produce new opportunities for household credit and access to the market, these were shaped by the hierarchical, patriarchal and disciplinary structures and moral categories of post-Tridentine associations.
