| Opis: | The SCP Foundation, an extensive collaborative creative writing project, is internationally recognized for its fictitious scientific articles about securing, containing, and protecting anomalies, also known as SCPs. Since it is an open-source wiki, anyone can submit articles, and the authors are anonymous. This paper focused on researching language and gender in SCP articles. Gender is socially constructed and does not necessarily coincide with biological sex. Gender stereotypes reflect expectations about social groups and their members. They can affect occupational choices and even the health-risk behaviors of men and women. In language, gender stereotypes can be reflected in sexism and slurs. Data for this paper are drawn from content analyses of 50 randomly selected SCP entries. Qualitative data was then summarized into quantitative data. Results indicate a neutral, impersonal, and descriptive language for anomalies, which are referred to with the neuter reference because they are deemed borderline beings. Men are more often positively and negatively regarded than women, as women appear significantly less frequently than men in the entries, regardless of the role examined. Men do, however, appear in the roles of victims more often. Gender-stereotypical professions were associated with men, whereas women were associated with professions similar to those of men, indicating a shift from gender stereotypes. Sexism is reflected in the form of gendered slurs. No other socially constructed genders were found in the SCP entries. |
