Abstract:
The study aimed to obtain empirical data regarding public perceptions related to female leadership and public acceptance of female presidential candidates in 2024, considering that the previous female leadership were not accepted. The research approach used was quantitative, using surveys. The survey was conducted in 34 provinces in Indonesia. The results of the research showed that women tend to support female candidates as leaders, while some men were still doubtful of women’s abilities as leaders. The younger generation was more open to women as leaders, while the older generation was more conservative. Support for female candidates was also associated with higher earnings. The potential to overcome gender stereotypes and old norms emerges through shifting the views of the younger generation, increasing gender awareness and better education. In conclusion, society’s view of women in leadership is influenced by gender, age, and economy. Efforts to change this view are important for achieving gender equality and assessing leaders based on quality and potential, independent of gender.
