full_text_status: public
abstract: This research is questioning the perception of Dutch citizens on gender norms and homosexual personnel in the armed forces. Quantitative research methods are chosen because they can be used to quantify attitudes, behaviours and opinions. The main focus is on the urban/rural differences. This study claims that there is no difference in perception of Dutch citizens on gender norms in the armed forces between urban and rural areas. According to this research, this hypothesis can be accepted. In the perception on the characteristic physical strength of homosexual women, there is a significant difference between urban citizens and rural citizens. Urban citizens are predominantly neutral or agree with the statements used in this research, where rural citizens are more divided between agreeing and disagreeing.
