Abstract
This paper studies the gender differences in political tolerance among adol escents with the aim of finding aspects concerned with political tolerance where gender differences are significant. Significantly, girls are more wil ling to extend the right of meeting and the right of having a house to the most least-liked group in a country than bops. Furthermore girls show a gre ater preference towards feminists, gypsies, homosexuals, nationalists, immi grants and Jews than boys.
