摘要

Through an online survey among Mexican college students, we document that heterosexual men’s resistance to adopting inclusive language is correlated with their beliefs about being labeled LGBTQ + when using it. Then, we show that respondents miscalculate the probability of LGBTQ + identification conditional on language use. Finally, we find that informing heterosexual men of the probability of belonging to the LGBTQ + population conditional on using inclusive language computed through the Bayes Rule and from their own estimates of other probabilities leads to an increase in their willingness to adopt it.
