Participants were 134 German fathers (28 to 60years) of a mor child. They were asked how they would personally react if, one day, their child disclosed their LG inty to them. As hypothized, fathers wh a stronger masculy orientatn (i.e., adherence to tradnal male genr norms, such as pennce, assertivens, and physil strength) reported that they would be more likely to reject their LG child. This associatn was serially mediated by two factors: fathers’ general anti-LG attus (i.e., level of homophobia) and their emotnal distrs due to their child’s g out (e.g., feelgs of anger, shame, or sadns). The rult pattern was pennt of the child’s genr or age.
