摘要

随着越来越多的女性选择放弃做母亲,无子女女性和出生时被指定为女性的人(AFAB)值得研究,特别是考虑到产前理想会使不生孩子的选择难以锻炼。尽管临时避孕可以阻止做母亲,但医生有时会劝阻或拒绝女性获得更永久的选择,包括绝育,因为他们认为没有孩子的女性和AFAB会后悔自己的决定。从生殖正义框架来看,我们对154名无子女女性和非二元人群进行了心理调查,这些女性寻求绝育,要么获得绝育,要么被拒绝绝育。参与者完成了心理健康、自尊和性生活质量的测量。获得绝育手术的无子女参与者比被拒绝接受绝育手术的有子女参与者表现出更高的自尊、更好的性质量和更高的幸福感。提出绝育请求后的年龄和时间都没有解释两组在性生活质量和心理健康方面的差异。总之,这些发现为寻求绝育的无子女女性的潜在结果提供了第一个经验证据。

Sterilized and Satisfied: Outcomes of Childfree Sterilization Obtainment and Denials
As more women choose to forgo motherhood, childfree women and people assigned female at birth (AFAB) are important to study, particularly given pronatalist ideals that can make the choice not to have children difficult to exercise. Although temporary contraception prevents motherhood, physicians sometimes discourage or deny women access to more permanent options, including sterilization, due to their belief that childfree women and those AFAB will regret their decision. From a reproductive justice framework, we examined psychological outcomes of sterilization approval and denials among a sample of 154 childfree women and nonbinary people AFAB who sought and either obtained or were denied sterilization. Participants completed measures of psychological well-being, self-esteem, and sexual quality of life. Childfree participants who obtained sterilization reported higher self-esteem, better sexual quality, and higher well-being than childfree individuals who were denied the procedure. Neither age nor time since making the sterilization request accounted for the differences between the groups in terms of sexual quality of life and psychological well-being. Collectively, these findings offer the first empirical evidence of the potential outcomes among childfree women seeking sterilization.

期刊介绍: Psychology of Women Quarterly (PWQ) is a feminist, scientific, peer-reviewed journal that publishes empirical research, critical reviews and theoretical articles that advance a field of inquiry, teaching briefs, and invited book reviews related to the psychology of women and gender. Topics include (but are not limited to) feminist approaches, methodologies, and critiques; violence against women; body image and objectification; sexism, stereotyping, and discrimination; intersectionality of gender with other social locations (such as age, ability status, class, ethnicity, race, and sexual orientation); international concerns; lifespan development and change; physical and mental well being; therapeutic interventions; sexuality; social activism; and career development. This journal will be of interest to clinicians, faculty, and researchers in all psychology disciplines, as well as those interested in the sociology of gender, women’s studies, interpersonal violence, ethnic and multicultural studies, social advocates, policy makers, and teacher education.
