The paper analyses party positions on gender equality policies in Germany. While these policies have been intensively studied in various national contexts and for different parties, less is known to what extent these positions are explained by socio-cultural or socio-economic cleavages. Based on an original party expert survey, conducted in Germany in 2021, we demonstrate that the political space in Germany on gender equality policies is strongly structured along the GAL-TAN divide. We also show that the positions of moderate TAN parties differ most strongly regarding LGBTQI issues whilst GAL parties equally support women -related and LGBTQI-related issues. The Green party and the right-wing party AfD occupy the most consistent and salient but also outermost positions in the political space. Our study makes a substantial contribution to the analysis of gender equality policies and offers a systematic analysis of party positions in the realm of the cultural GAL-TAN cleavage.
