Abstract
Recent research on androgyny indicates that many people who are able to take on the best characteristics of both sexes are not bound to traditional sex‐typed roles. It was reasoned that androgyny would mediate attitude change with males and females. A predicted and confirmed interaction between androgyny and sex of the receiver demonstrated that traditionally sex‐typed females changed attitudes more than did traditionally sex‐typed males; as predicted this difference was greater than the attitude change obtained with androgynous males and females.
