“…For example, gendered parenting of adolescents may be exhibited in the degree of acceptance of gender non-conformity. Adolescence (particularly late adolescence) and early adulthood are associated with changes in sexual identity and gender presentation (Hasmanová-Marhánková, 2019 ; Stewart et al, 2019 ). For young women in particular, this period may be associated with multiple changes to their self-identified sexual orientation (Campbell et al, 2021 ).…”

Introduction: Today’s adolescents are growing up in a unique sociocultural climate in which gender issues are highly prominent. Alongside new ways of understanding gender identity, there are persistent gender disparities in social, health and mental health outcomes despite increasingly egalitarian views and a significant public focus on sexual assault and gender-based violence. Given gender-differentiated outcomes emerge during adolescence, it is critical to revisit factors influencing adolescent gender development. It has been argued that gendered parenting, reflected in differences in parenting attitudes and behaviors directed towards boys and girls, influences gender development. While numerous studies have examined gendered parenting with children, there has been no previous synthesis of gendered parenting of adolescents. Method: The current narrative review presents an overview of research into gendered parenting of adolescents, including parental modelling, gendered environments, and specific parenting practices, and draws together the available research on how it impacts adolescents. Gendered parenting is also examined in the context of LGBTQI + and gender non-conforming adolescents. Results: There is limited research investigating the presence of gendered parenting of adolescents, and even less assessing its impact on adolescent psychosocial outcomes. The available literature suggests that there may be effects of gendered parenting on adolescents, particularly on their gender role attitudes and gender-typed behaviors. Conclusions: Future work is needed to better understand how gendered parenting of adolescents manifests in the family home. In addition, research is needed to examine the longitudinal impact of gendered parenting, particularly within non-traditional families, and across a range of sociocultural contexts.

“…From a life cycle perspective, the aging of LGBTQIA+ people is often accompanied by the existence of hurdles associated with their sexual and gender identity status, creating invisibility and often causing older LGBTQIA+ people to return to the closet at this stage of life ( 49 ). This movement represents a setback in life trajectories and is usually accompanied by feelings of anticipation of rejection (especially in a residential context); it is also associated with the impossibility of freely expressing one's sexual and/or gender identities, thus losing opportunities to offer care and support adjusted to their needs.…”

“…As in the example of divorce and remarrying, a historically situated view of normative scripts in late life highlights that as cultural norms change, what constitutes age-graded normative events may change accordingly. For example, in the West, "coming out" as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender has become relatively safer, which very likely affects when this developmental milestone manifests for different cohorts (Hasmanová Marhánková, 2019; Running head: NARRATIVE IDENTITY IN THE LAST CHAPTERS 13 Knauer, 2013). It may follow that the meaning-making of an event like coming out may have different implications for individuals across the life span and across cohorts.…”

The study of narrative identity-the ongoing process of authoring our life stories and being shaped by them-has provided a rich conceptualization of adult personality, yielding important insights about the storied nature of meaning-making in personality, particularly for young and midlife adults. However, little research has been done to investigate narrative identity in older adulthood, potentially resulting in a constrained understanding of narrative identity across the life span. I propose that much-needed research on narrative identity in late life could substantiate or undermine a hypothesized shift in emphasis from authoring to reading life stories (McAdams, 2015), complicate and refine the master narrative framework (McLean & Syed, 2015), and offer new targets for narrative identity questions across the entire life span.
