“…Linked fate is measured by asking respondents how much they think what happens to the group will affect their own life. Well-vetted and widely used, the linked fate measure emerged from scholarship on collective consciousness and political unity among Black Americans (Dawson 1994;Smith, Lopez Bunyasi, and Smith 2019;Tate 1994) and subsequently applied to other marginalized groups, including women (Gay, Hochschild, and White 2016;Goode et al 2021;Simien 2005;Stout, Kretschmer, and Ruppanner 2017).…”

The recent social and political inequalities women face in the United States have raised new questions about how distinct groups of women respond to a changing landscape. Here, we assess how racial and political differences shape women’s social identity as women and its association with support for abortion and the MeToo movement. Using original survey data, we find that for both Black and white women, gender-linked fate—the belief that one’s fate is tied to the well-being of the gender group—is predicted by political ideology and associated with attitudes about abortion and the MeToo movement. In contrast, social identity as a woman—when one feels deeply tied to and represented in a particular gender group—was common across the political spectrum and insignificant in predicting attitudes about these gendered political issues.

“…Given the aforementioned nationwide implications of Dobbs-related to abortion policy as well as to other aspects of women's rights-and compounded by the fact that abortion restrictions and protections were on the ballot in several states during the 2022 midterms, women who perceive a stronger gender-linked fate have a higher probability of acting politically in ways that they believe benefit women as a whole (Rinehart 1992;Winfrey et al 2014). Women with a greater sense of gender-linked fate are more likely to be liberal and affiliate with the Democratic party (Goode et al 2021;Kingston and Finkel 1987;Ruppanner et al 2019;Stout et al 2017). These ideas lead to our third hypothesis:…”

In the American system of government, courts are designed to operate within the legal sphere, with limited political interference. Is it possible, though, that a behavior that is at the heart of the political process can be influenced directly by a judicial decision? Focusing on voter registration big data for the universe of voters in North Carolina around the time of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the authors assess the roles of gender, political party affiliation, and age in voter registration. North Carolina is the only state whose voter registry has the necessary granularity over time and information needed. Women and Democrats were more likely to register to vote after information about the ruling was released, suggesting that Dobbs influenced their behavior. This effect on voter registration gender gap was unique to June 2022, unlike previous midterm election years (2014 and 2018). Interrupted time-series analyses lend further support to these findings.
