“…Third, in an environment where hostile interactions toward and about women are the norm, there may be social pressure on men to engage in such behavior to maintain their standing among peers. Additionally, while cohesion is highly valued in the military, it has been used to exclude rather than include women into the organization (Harrell & Miller, 1997;Rosen et al, 1996; Note 1).…”

Intentions to reenlist in the U.S. military are analyzed in relation to reported experiences of unwanted, uninvited individualized and more general environmental sexual behaviors and whether or not any such incidents are labeled as sexual harassment. Such behaviors should reduce the likelihood of reenlistment and harassing behaviors are expected to have a greater impact on the intentions of women compared to men. Data, from the "Armed Forces 2002 Sexual Harassment Survey," indicated harassment has a negative impact on reenlistment intentions and affects men and women differently. Environmental harassment is more related to women's reenlistment intentions, while individualized harassment is stronger for men. Accusations of individualized forms of sexual harassment may create a negative image of the organization and be more likely to be concealed. The anonymity of this survey may allow men to state that they experienced sexual harassment. Because of the "Don't ask…" policy, sexual orientation was not measured.

“…The lower importance of common identity for women (Seeley et al, 2003) makes it a less potent route to horizontal cohesion. This may be why military women prefer working with men: 8% agreed with the statement "I prefer to work with female soldiers," 63% disagreed, and 29% were undecided (Rosen et al, 1996).…”

“…Finalmente, a existência de alguns resultados empíricos contraditórios, ou seja, relatos de situações em que as políticas institucionais parecem ter ajudado efectivamente a alterar atitudes negativas relativamente às mulheres militares (Yoder, Adams e Prince, 1983;Rosen et. al., 1996), alerta contra conclusões lineares.…”

ResumenNeste artigo discute-se o impacto de políticas organizacionais sobre a construção de igualdade de oportunidades e integração de género nas Forças Armadas. Após uma apresentação de dados empíricos que permitem a caracterização global dos factores condicionantes e da situação das mulheres militares nas democracias ocidentais, analisase o papel das políticas organizacionais na promoção da igualdade de oportunidades e integração de género nas Forças Armadas. Conclui-se que nem sempre políticas destinadas a promover a igualdade formal terão idênticos efeitos em termos de integração social, e que as políticas parecem ser condição necessária, mas não suficiente para assegurar maiores níveis de equidade entre sexos no universo militar. Palabras clave: Género, Forças Armadas, igualdade, políticas de integração. AbstractIn this article, the impact of the organizational policies on the construction of the equality of opportunity and integration of the gender in the Armed Forces is discussed. After a presentation of the empirical data that allow the global characterization of the determining factors and the situation of the military women in Western democracies, the paper of the organizational policies in the promotion of the equality of opportunity and gender integration in the Armed Forces is analyzed. The conclusion is that not always the policies destined to promote the formal equality will have identical effects in terms of social integration, and that the policies seem to be a necessary condition, but not enough to assure greater levels of equality between sexes in the military universe.
