Abstract
This study investigates the linguistic treatment of gendered references in science fiction compared to general fiction, revealing greater gender permeability in science fiction.
Reality Card
Core Claim
Science fiction exhibits a stronger tendency to degender terms and place masculine terms in feminine contexts compared to general fiction.
Method / Result
The model predicts a masculine term about twice as often when masking 'woman' compared to predicting a feminine term when masking 'man'.
Limitations
The study's findings may be limited by the specific corpora used and the potential biases in the RoBERTa model.
